I pretty much adore this tea but I think that it is kind of odd that I do. It smells so sweet! Like little-ball-of-marzipan-candy sweet. And the taste! It’s a light, sweet, floral and slightly earthy tea with faint notes of wood or nuts and then a lovely sweet floral poof at the end and then a chaser of marzipan that can in no way be natural but I still luf it muchly. Just thinking of this tea gives me the urge to sprinkle glitter and candied flowers over everything and dance around a garden in a white gauzy dress.
(The second steep (also at 3min) is my favorite. The marzipan and flowers thing doesn’t change (if anything it may be a little sweeter), it just smoothes out a little compared to steep number one. I still need the glitter, candied flowers, garden and dress to really set the mood.)

LOL…I can see it now. :)
Don’t ask me why, I just had a flashback to Wizard of Oz’s Glinda the good witch! The mind works in mysterious ways…! :) But having fun.
Lauren, I was totally thinking of the good queen from Alice in Wonderland!
There you go, then! I wasn’t too far off with my imagery after reading this lovely post!
Though of course, nothing would top a photo (on Flickr steepster group maybe) with Auggy dancing and twirling dressed up in a gauzy dress with flowers galore and glitter sparkling everywhere … hint hint hint, Auggy!
Hah! Well, if I had gauzy dress, glitter and flowers, I might do something like that but I lack all of these things so everyone is out of luck! :P
Hahaha okay Auggy we will let you off the hook for NOW, but for Halloween we want the photo Lauren described posted on Flicker. In other words you already know what you are going to be for Halloween! ;)
