A Personal Journey – Crossroads

* This post is personal and unrelated to tea. Please stop here if not interested.  I am THRILLED today. I was OBSESSING and I mean super duper unhealthy obsessing over the last few pounds I needed lose to get to my arbitrary goal. Through the love and care of my friends and family (you know who you are) I was… Read more →

Matcha vs Sencha Challenge Day 6

Rough start today. Son woke up kind of early and I was so tired from all the craziness from yesterday that I truly wanted to just stay in bed. Of course this is never an option for the mom on the go. So I get up against my own good judgement and soldier on.  It helps that on the ride… Read more →

Matcha vs Sencha Challenge Day 5

I’ll make this one quick. I plan on tomorrow’s post to be the final of the daily series. I will still continue the challenge for an entire month and will post once a week until the month is up. I would have continued daily but I’ll be honest it is a bit much for me plus I don’t think there… Read more →

I Love My Job!

Another Tea Sample? – World Tea Expo Day #1

It’s been about a week since we have been back from the Expo. We meaning myself and my husband Ralph. It’s been an interesting week at that just trying to see if I can’t put my thoughts together onto virtual paper.  This was our first exclusively tea Expo and I feel we saw and learned so much that the idea… Read more →

Hand Painted Matcha (Tea) Bowl

I just have have to share with a new matcha bowl that I had painted and had glazed.  I also put into it a message that saw on Pinterest on another mug that really spoke to me, “No Tea…No Work” and to that I say a rousing “Heck Yay!”  I plan on making more and will share them with you as I… Read more →

Lovely Ladies of Tea Trade

To My Lovely Ladies of Tea Trade, Today I wish you all a very Happy Mothers Day!  I know I am a day early but I am certain all of us will be fawned upon tomorrow and thus distracting us from our social media responsibilities so I decided to send you my best and my appreciation for all you do, today. I… Read more →

Fashionably Late To The Gaiwan Party?

As many of you know I just purchased two new Gaiwans.  I already had one but it was small and the material it is made of  a bit thin causing me to burn my fingers more than I’d prefer.   I actually stopped using my Gaiwan mostly because it was a bit cumbersome for me.  I am the type of… Read more →

New Additions To The Family

Just recently purchased two new Gaiwans for my rather lacking collection.  With the addition of these two I now have three.  I particularly like these because they are larger than the first one I have a the material is thicker and stronger making them better for everyday use.  The one I have always had is a bit more dainty and made of… Read more →
