It’s my last day of the work week, and I was not wanting to wake up this morning. Forgot to wash my Lock & Lock, so I grabbed my generic tea bottle. I am not fond of the basket in it, so I left it at home and decided to stick with bagged teas today.
As far as this specific tea goes, I’m pretty much just trying to drink it down and empty the tin. It’s not one I look forward to, I’m just trying to get through it.
When I was a very young child, I swallowed an ice cube whole. It got stuck in my throat, and my mother had me drink hot tea to melt it away. That started a love affair with tea that has never abated.
I dabbled with Celestial Seasonings and other grocery store teabags for awhile, in my young and foolish days. But a few years ago, I received a tea of the month subscription from Adagio, and I found that there was a whole other world of tea out there that I had never experienced.
I love drinking tea, and I love the personal ceremony of making a glass or pot of tea for myself. It’s like a meditation.
