I enjoyed some nice Cheesecake matcha this morning. I wasn’t sure if I wanted to have it today since it has gotten cold again, but I really wanted a special treat. I had two nice hot cups of Tardis blend and then set out to make my cold matcha latte. I used cold low-fat vanilla soy milk and a couple ice cubes. I put it in my Magic Bullet type blender and Voila! A perfect frothy cold latte. So I am sitting here bundled up in a blanket looking out at another cold cloudy morning enjoying my drink. It’s funny how even when you are staying indoors and the house temp is the same as always you feel cold if it looks cold and windy. The weather here has been going up and down like crazy… High of 25 degrees, next day high of 50, next day 42, next 18, next 4 inches of snow, next 38 and rain, it just keeps on going with no real spring in sight. I can hear the song birds singing outside, so spring must be getting close. The birds are probably all saying, Whose bright idea was it to start migrating now?

I feel your pain in the temperature changes and the longing for
Spring. I keep telling myself I need to get trying some iced teas, but can’t seem to want to drink anything cold while I’m at home right now.. Just seems to add to the chill.

Thanks for the reminder that I need to order this sample! I keep forgetting & I want to try me some matcha :)

Retired first grade teacher. I tend to like dessert type/herbal teas as a substitute for sweet treats; flavored black teas and mates to get that energy that I am often lacking ;-p
My husband of 43 years thinks I’m nuts regarding the whole tea thing… but he bought me a Breville for Christmas, so what can I say. :-D
My other interests are reading (books go well with tea :D) and beading. I volunteer at my “old” school teaching reading and I volunteer for the blind. I am trying hard to lose weight ( I have now lost 40 lbs and I’m looking good in my skinny jeans, IMHO) I am now walking about 4.5 miles a day and I am trying to do some core work for about 30 min. 3x a week.

I have been watching Doctor Who for 33years. In case you can’t tell my avatar is two daleks drinking tea! I am always open to swapping Doctor Who books for tea. I have about 120 Doctor Who books that I am eager to send some to a fan. :D Let me know if you would like any books! I love that so many people have begun watching DW!

Also I love swaps, pm me if you’d like to do a swap.

Since I find others’ rating legends helpful, I added my own.

95-100 A once in a lifetime experience; the best there is; will keep this stocked until the cows come home

90-94 First rate; top notch; really terrific; will definitely buy more

80-89 Excellent; likely to become a favorite, will likely buy more

70-79 Very good; would enjoy again, might buy again if in the mood for this particular one or a better, similar version not available or it’s on a really good sale :-)

50-69 Good; wouldn’t pass up if offered, but probably wouldn’t buy again unless craving this particular flavor

Below 50 Meh! Wouldn’t bother drinking it again.
