I love when the seasons change. We don’t get much of that here until MAYBE late October..for a week or so…but I have fond and vivid memories of my childhood on the east coast.
In fact one year, Marc (who is from Mass.) and I wistfully watched a lone, dead leaf spin to the […]

Well guys, it has happened. The Starbucks where Marc and I go is closing. There are no other coffee places here, except another Starbucks with crappy service so I guess our coffee dates are about to take on a new look..I am not sure what thought.

Regardless…bubble tea developed in Taiwan. School kids […]

For most of my life my idea of Easter brunch has been a chocolate bunny washed down with either Dr. Pepper, or coffee. Sort of depends on the era, if you know what I mean. We have rarely attended a church that had the energy to do a sunrise service, anyway. But, Easter brunch is […]

I usually post my recipes at Baking Delights or Apron Strings, saving tea and coffee stuff here. But I really wanted to share these scones here because they could be such an incredible part of your next tea party.
I love the flavor of rose. The tea that I had custom blended and […]

Hot cocoa and hot chocolate mixes are great to put in festive containers and slip in a stocking or wrap in a special mug. For the frugal among us they are a Christmas staple. Sometimes all too predictable.
And some of the mix recipes out there….eww! Just because I am cheap does not mean […]
