Dammann Frères Advent Calendar 2022 – Day 13
I’m so grateful this was the tea yesterday. I had a six hour math final ordeal, and by the time I was done it was nearing midnight and I had a headache.
I love chamomile more than most people. Adding apple to it is always a nice way to emphasize the already apple-ish notes of the sleepy-flower. Likewise, sage tidies up and rounds out some of its herbaceous edges with earthy fresh notes (not that much sage though). In that way, the extra ingredients don’t really flavour (and smother) chamomile so much as highlight its existing profile. It’s perfectly soothing so gets my general chamomile score of “76” + 2 points for solid (if somewhat conventional) blending.
Flavors: Apple, Chamomile, Earthy, Floral, Herbaceous, Lemon, Menthol, Sage, Smooth, Sweet

It was not intended to be… but I bring this on myself. It was a take-home “open book” test; the Prof recommended taking 3-4hrs but gave us an incredibly generous total of 7hrs “just in case”. I, being me, somehow needed most of that (ugh).
Wow, I like math more than the next person, but that sound grueling. I did a proof once in grad school that I was so proud of I put on the fridge. No red marks on the paper though the prof did put ‘Nice’ at the end. Fingers crossed no red marks for you!
Yes, I ended up doing well! And it marks the last of a series of prereqs I had to go back and take. :)
This was also an oddball “problem-solving” math course – required for aspiring elementary school teachers. The math itself is basic but still a mental adjustment for me – if, admittedly, a fun one!
SIX HOURS??? That sounds cruel!
Agreed! That definitely sounds like an ordeal.

Ha yep, back in college, I would take every minute allowed for tests!
