My Tea Story

               Hello Ladies, I hope everyone is doing well. I have been pondering on whether or not I should tell my story of I got introduced to drinking hot tea. Surprise! I am going to tell the story so everyone grab a cup of tea or coffee of your choice and take a seat. It was on Thanksgiving day and I remember I was turning 20 years old. My aunt brought some Oregon Chai tea with her. She said that she tried it and she loved it. She gave me a couple of packets and I was eager to try it. (I am the adventurous one in the family, anything new, everyone gives it to me to try.) So I read and followed the directions on the back and I took the cup to my room. Oh my goodness, it was unlike anything I have ever tasted, better than hot cocoa. Needless to say, I was hooked! The following week, I went to the store and walked down the tea aisle and I had come across some English tea which is now my go to, Lady Grey tea. One tea led to another and then I started putting a some cookies with my tea and now it has become something that I look forward to in the afternoon when I come home from work. 

 

My family makes fun of me and says that I belong in the United Kingdom, I laugh with them and tell them I wouldn't mind. (haha) As I said before it's something that I look forward to at the end of the day. After I take my shower, I will make a cup of tea, put a cookie with it, take it with me to my room and open my Bible and start reading. It has become part of my evening routine and it helps me wind down after a busy day. I work with four year old children all day that keep me on my feet so by the end of the day, I am exhausted. Drinking hot tea has taught me to slow down and enjoy the little things in life. You can't enjoy a cup of hot tea by gulping it down, oh no, it must be sipped and it usually takes me about 20 minutes to finish my little tea time. In conclusion, this is how I was introduced to tea and I cherish every time I sit down with a cup! I hope you enjoyed reading this post until next time!
