This is one of my new favorite teas. I don’t really know what I was expecting..“chocolate and strawberries with a spicy twist. Blend consists of crushed cocoa, apple bits, strawberry pieces, chocolate bits, safflower petals, and crushed chili pods.”
I dislike chocolate teas, but when I was in the store and the cover came off […]
I had some things going on this week and life has been busier than usual. I have not checked several of my blogs much, and haven’t been keeping up with the various competitions and challenges like I usually do. I was going through Daring Bakers to double check the post dates on this […]
When I got the Summer of Love tea, I also got one called Romantic Time. I thought, hey, what the heck, Valentine’s Day is almost here and the more times I post words like romantic and love, the more people will find me on Google. In theory anyway.

Twix..it’s all in the mix…
and now it really does seem to be all in the mix. Mars is has come out with a new Twix bar that combines the Twix bar with the flavor of coffee. Called the Twix Java, it has “a touch of real espresso beans” to enhance the flavor […]
I really need a snappier title. Hey, it’s late.
Tea Avenue is a tea website that I have recently been introduced to. They have numerous teas, teapots, and even herbal soap…you have to love diversity.
I liked the site alot, it was easy to manage and navigate and I will tell you, I liked […]
When Anne Marie left the link to her blog I totally did not know what to expect. I love reading your blogs, and seeing your tea things and sharing your coffee and tea experiences with you! It is absolutely like sitting down with a bunch of friends.
As I said, I had to take Marc to […]
