I had another chance to visit the “windy city”. Chicago feels a little different in July than January, a tad warmer and a lot more tourists-well that includes us. My top priority this trip was tea, tea and more tea-no surprise there. I headed back to my very first DAVID’s TEA shop. I wanted to …
I had not been down to the coastal town of Port Aransas, Texas since Hurricane Harvey hit in August 2017. Thankfully the town has pulled itself almost fully back together and we decided to spend a few days there to watch the beauty of the sunrise and run around looking for crabs in the evening. …
My tea journey is so much fun. There’s something new in every flavor and brand of tea I try. I love the look, smell and taste of tea. My tea adventure has led me to try a large variety and I’m only just scratching the tea surface. I have tried bagged and loose leaf tea …
Wow-I am super excited! I had something really cool happen this week. I was nominated for the Sunshine Blogger Award.

I love all things chai. The smell alone is amazing. Some of my favorite childhood memories were going to some of my friends homes where their families made chai on the stove. I can make a decent chai from scratch but if I need a quick, easy batch my staple is Tazo Chai Organic Latte …
TRAGIC NEWS! My electric kettle just up and died. Not a hint, a note or break-up text, she just went kaput. I tried to put the kettle on for my afternoon tea and nothing! In distress I needed a plan, fast. I could use the microwave for my yummy PG Tips- but that doesn’t warm …

You know me-always on an adventure for tea. Whenever I go somewhere new I always look for any local tea shops. There is nothing more exciting than finding someplace interesting to try teas. There are actual tea shops in Texas but I mostly find coffee shops. Before I go to a new coffee shop I …
