I’ve been having a rough ass week but my mom sent me a card starting my birthday off right although it’s not until June 1st. So, I’m drinking my cucumber water, tea, and taking a second to breathe.
Year of the monkey gives off a lovely sweet scent.
This pot - the panda pot is 95ml and also from Bitter Leaf Teas!
I steep this tea at 205F starting with a rinse - to 15sec+ infusions
Just look at those leaves!
Year of the Monkey Sheng puerh is deliciously sweet with a nice mineral finish. It’s light and drinkable all day. I kicked off the spring semester with this tea because I knew it would put my mind at ease. Everything I’ve gotten from Bitter Leaf Teas so far has been wonderful, and of course this tea doesn’t let me down! 3-6 infusions, YotM continues to deliver, with tastes of winter berry and some wheat notes. This tea lasted me about 15 infusions before I was tea’d out! You can find their shop here. I’ve yet to be disappointed with anything I get from them!

Hello March! A new month, as always, means a new calendar page. This is from my 2021 wall calendar. Does it match your March plans or mood? We’ve had such a sunny week that this feels very wintery now, but I know in many places it’s still very cold.
PS. This is from my 2021 wall calendar. It’s sold out, but I do have many cute hand drawn drawn cards and prints available in my Etsyshop.

Tea-ish of the day: London Fog
Got the london fog in aroma cafe for the first time in ma life, and damn it is one beautiful drink. Basically an earl grey latte with vanilla concentrate, yummm. As a tea lover, i am now contemplating which one i like more, chai tea latte or london fog.

It’s time for a lovely cup of cup! Happy Thursday.
Loving this book so much, Virginia Woolf’s sharply perceptive writing never fails to amaze me.
Lazy day in bed
Mid-day treat
As much as I am a huge fan of loose leaf teas, Twinnings makes my ultimate favorite earl grey. I usually don’t add anything to it because it is perfect on its own but when I do I add honey. It’s everything I look for in early grey tea: the punch of black tea with the mellowness of early grey. Also, I can buy it in huge boxes and tea bags are the easiest on-the-go morning source of caffeine for me. One day I will invest in one of those fancy travel infusing tumbler things for loose leaf teas. Until then, I am completely satisfied with just Twinnings earl grey when I’m in a rush out the door.
Also, the cookies are 365 organic sandwich cookies and they are absolutely delicious when paired with this tea.
