ashmanra’s monthly sipdown challenge
March 2023 → a tea you won’t repurchase
I’m loving these sipdown prompts! Today’s tea is a general sort of vanilla black. It’s basic, nothing exciting. I’m enjoying it for the most part, though I did add one teaspoon too many. I think it would be fine with less. I still have one serving left, but I know this won’t be a repurchase. I have other vanilla teas I prefer, ones that taste of vanilla bean instead of vanilla flavoring.
I’ve just jumped on the Substack bandwagon, probably a couple years too late (as usual). Does anyone have any favorite writers there? I’m really enjoying the format. As if I don’t already have a hundred tabs open with unread articles and blogs. I just can’t seem to help myself.

Ha, I was late to Substack, too! Anne Helen Petersen’s “Culture Study” is one of my favorites on the platform.
Sara Gran had a post where she asked three questions then she had a book recommendation for you. I loved her Claire DeWhitt books (hoping for number 4 soon) and she recommended to me Mr. Fox by Helen Oyeyemi.
Kelmishka I’ve heard that name before, but I can’t think where. I’ve just subscribed to her Substack – thank you!
Michelle I’ve found the post, thank you! How fun to get such personalized recommendations. I’m looking forward to reading through the comments. I checked and I do already have the first Claire DeWitt book on my Goodreads TBR. I’ll have to look at Mr. Fox too.
