I should be in bed. Instead I am drinking puerh and eating Bissinger’s Chocolates that a friend sent to me as a gift! I choose to believe that the low caffeine of the puerh wont keep me up tonight (it probably will)and that the medicinal properties of the puerh will cancel out the calories in the chocolates. (It won’t.)

I slightly underleafed this and hubby, who loved it before, said he didn’t care for it! I will have to remember that he prefers this one strong. We are both partial to Golden Buds when it comes to shu…Youngest, who had requested it, said she thought it was great. It is a good daily drinker type puerh.

The leaves were only steeped once, so I am going to toss them in a carafe in the fridge to make some cold puerh to drink tomorrow. My reflux is kicking up again pretty badly. Yes, I know I shouldn’t be eating chocolate but honestly it doesnt seem to make a difference what I do or do not eat. Amounts and frequency seem to matter most. Drinking cold puerh and cold chamomile seems to soothe it just a bit.

Bio

I am a music teacher, tutor, and former homeschool mom (25 years!) who started drinking loose leaf tea about fifteen years ago! My daughters and I have tea every day, and we are frequently joined by my students or friends for “tea time.” Now my hubby joins us, too. His tastes have evolved from Tetley with milk and sugar to mostly unadorned greens and oolongs.

We have learned so much history, geography, and culture in this journey.

My avatar is a mole in a teacup! Long story…
