We’re back and the kids have a new scheme.
Making tea blends!
A few months ago they wanted to grow a tea garden, and now they’d like to make their own blends.
I blame my mother.
For the last few weeks, we’ve been traveling to visit my family. Last week my mom took me a little tea at a shop downtown.
We ordered “tea for two,” chose our teacups from the wall, and waited for our loose-leaf tea to brew. When it was ready, we doctored it with cream, and rock sugar, and made a morning of it. Mmmm.
My mom gets me.
When I told the kids about it they wanted to go! They too enjoyed the tea and the ritual.
Now they want to “make a cottage tea industry.” Teehee!
