  • Coconut Cheesecake Honeybush Latte {Recipe}

    A little something I experimented with today. It turned out amazing. It was so good I had to do this little write up about it. Although I didn’t froth the milk I am sure you could. Hope you enjoy it.  

  • Tea Magazine Has Gone Digital!

    Tea Magazine Has Gone Digital! Why does this matter? Simple, in this world of multi-tasking I would like to peacefully sit down to a magazine and a cup of tea but truthfully it just does not happen as frequently as I’d like. In reality I am typing away, searching something on online, responding to tweets,…

  • Obsessed With Green

    No, I’m not talking about money. Although I wouldn’t mind an extra few bucks. What I am talking about is…Green Tea. Like many of you, I go through moods where I drink a particular tea constantly and then when the wind blows just right I switch to something new a few weeks or months down…

  • 19 Lessons On Tea – Review

    19 Lessons On Tea By: 27Press I was lucky enough to find out on Twitter that this book was available for free on the Kindle but only temporarily. Of course I jumped at the opportunity. Who wouldn’t, it is all about tea after all. Once I got started, I quickly found the book to be…

  • My Magisso White Teacup

    My first impression when I unboxed this teacup was just how large it was. I didn’t expect to be as large as it was. Of course, I did not pay any attention to the dimensions that I am certain were clearly stated on Amazon’s site. Nevertheless, once I got over the initial shock, I decided…

  • It’s True…I Ate My Sencha

    Please don’t cringe. It all sort of happened by accident and because of my inability to restrain myself. Yesterday during our bi-weekly “Ladies of Tea Trade” Google+ Hangout I decided to finally partake in an indulgence so graciously provided by @Jopj. It was a vibrant, deep emerald green Sencha. The leaves were thin and almost…

  • Mechanics of My Mind

    Ever find that sometimes it is better to just write out or talk out some of your thoughts and ideas for a little mental order?  I am at the point where I think my best outlet for order is to write it out here. As many of you already know I run my own modest…

  • Review: Organic Irish Breakfast from EPI Tea

    Thank you to EPI Tea for sending me several samples of teas to review.  I have decided to start with Irish Breakfast this morning.  The biggest reason is because it is still fairly early in the morning and who am I kidding, I could use a little wake up call. Tea: Organic Irish Breakfast (Black…
