I haven’t had this in a long time. It’s as good as I remember. I’m keeping my rating at 80.

We had 12 inches of snow last night so it’s definitely a stay-at-home-and-do-something-useful day. I cleaned out my tea cabinets today. Wow – lots of good stuff in there. Time to join up with “Little Terri”and starting doing those sip downs.

Getting these empty tins dry dry after washing them is a pain in the butt (especially if you are impatient like me. I’m standing there with a hair dryer when my husband comes home and looks at me like I’ve lost my mind. ;-p

Wow! Hope you’re all staying safe over there. That’s a crazy amount of snow in one night.

Oh, it’s okay. It’s Chicago and we get snow. I swear the weather people make such a big deal about everything ;-p The snow is plowed and everything will be back to normal tomorrow. But thanks for the concern.

p.s. I was born in Maine and my parents had to call a snowplow so they could get mommy and me to the hospital because they had 6 feet of snow on the ground. Now that’s what I call bad weather. :D

Profile

Bio

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.
