Hello, friends! I hope you are all safe and well. It's been an eventful -- albeit odd at times -- year. I once again have gone a long stretch without posting, but in mid-June, my daughter was born, so I have been focused on caring for her. I can't believe how much she's grown in [...]
Amora Coffee recently reached out to me about trying their new teas. The company is known for their coffee but recently added a tea line, so I was interested to see how the blends were. While I usually sip loose leaf, these bags were rich and flavorful. The teas are all pure and organic, and [...]
I design Tribune Publishing newspapers for my day (night) job, and when I was working on the Aurora Beacon News a couple months ago, I read a story about Calla Lily Tea Room in Aurora and knew I wanted to try it. It looked like a really cute spot, and I have been searching for [...]
2019 was a busy but exciting year. It was the year that I really took control of my mental and physical health. It was the year that I traveled outside of North America for the first time. I continued at my current job, where I've now been for almost a year and a half, and [...]

There's nothing better than exchanging gifts with friends. And, I got to open one of my gifts a little early! I was really excited when Becca from Tea with B Blog asked if I wanted to do a tea exchange, and send each other our favorite teas. In addition to two awesome teas, Becca also [...]
Life can be really difficult sometimes. It's important to take care of yourself and find joy, even when it feels impossible. That's why I got so excited when I stumbled upon Tea Hee Hee! All of their packaging is super punny and sassy, and all of their tea tags all have a joke on them. [...]
Sunday Funday calls for a dessert tea. As the weather warms, Adagio Teas lemon meringue green, one of their springtime blends, has been one of my go-to sips that I purchased with my spring rep voucher. Even when it's hot out, there's still something comforting about a warm cuppa (also my fiance likes to keep [...]
There's not much that's more hygge than sitting down with a cozy blanket, book, some chocolate and cup of tea. The tea I'm going to talk about today fits well into that scene. I can't believe how long I waited to try Fox Tea Club's Chocolate Tea. They sent me a sample of it a few [...]
