I am sitting here, waiting for sleep… and this is the only herbal with any real pull tonight. I blame my wakefulness on my day off, and the nap I had this afternoon…
The bright contrast of green and red rooibos in my cup is pretty to look at, and the horrendous wind outside continuously moves the scent of this tea my way, while it steeps. Though I do not enjoy steeping this tea with my tuffy basket, it is all I have right now and I will just have to live with the little twigs that escape into the liquid.
Not very spicy today, there is a hint of creamy caramel to this tea and I am hit with the realisation that I dumped the last of the dreaded creme brulee rooibos into this tin in my hast to get rid of it… Uh-oh, I sense this may have been a HUGE faux pas! We shall soon find out….
