Who knew I had so much to yak about?

I just received a lovely package from a friend that knows I like to drink tea.  She sent me a sampler set from the Chado Tea Room.  I think this is a little hint to get out of my winey keemun rut and start being more adventuresome.  It includes all kinds of tea; green, black, white, mates, rooibos.  I’ve been intrigued with white teas so I think I’ll start with them. 

Another fabulous source for tea is Savoure in Eugene, Oregon.  Their Evening in Paris is as pretty as it is tasty, with bits of blue and yellow flower petals mixed in with the black tea. 

I love the tin and tiny containers the tea comes in.  I actually use the exact type of thing for my beads and crystals.  I love having everything organized so. 

It reminds me a little bit of the wine tasting kit Kevin Kline’s character made in the movie "French Kiss."  Of course that was a wooden box but still – everything in it’s place and properly labeled.  That’s probably what appeals to me so much.
