We are catching up on the new Sailor Moon Crystal series (don’t you judge me, it was my childhood) and I am completely distracted, but loving this tea. Cinnamon, blueberries, what’s not to love!

I haven’t got started on Sailor Moon Crystal yet, but oh my god, I’m excited for it. Nothing to be embarrassed about – Sailor Moon is an amazing story, and it was such an important part of my teenage years.

I tried this tea in store and it was really nice, but I didn’t pick it up. But you’ve got me thinking about it again, and maybe I will grab a small bit of it next time I’m in DAVIDs.

My goodness, I was obsessed with Sailor Moon as a teenager. My sister in law works in film and she met the voice actor for Tuxedo Mask in the dubs and long story short, I have his autograph and it is the most amazing thing ever.

The blueberry element does taste like blueberry jam, but I don’t see that as a bad thing, I rather like blueberry jam. And the cinnamon is wonderful. I just wish it wasn’t a rooibos, because I’d love to use it to flavor my kombucha, but cold rooibos gives me migraines. I encourage you to pick up some and try it with your own parameters at home. I always find I like teas a lot more at home than in store.

I’m always so nervous about blueberry in teas. (Always think I’m going to LOVE IT and hype myself up and then suffer a catastrophic let down.) Might try this one, though, because I can never resist cinnamon.

SMC: Sailor Jupiter. SAILOR JUPITER. SAILORJUPITER!!!!!!!!!!! That is all.

I really, really adore this one and might have to stock up on it. I encourage you to give it a go.

SMC: Sailor Jupiter was ALWAYS my favorite. I even made my mom make me a Sailor Jupiter costume one halloween!

Formerly aisling of tea, now you can call me ele .

“You can forgive a murder, but never a mistake while preparing tea.” Chinese proverb

Labels? Here you go: Femme, Wife, Lesbian, Homemaker, Happy. Don’t forget tea fanatic!

New label as of May, 2015: Diabetic. I’m using tea to satisfy my sweet tooth cravings and keep me hydrated without hurting my system or messing with my blood sugar.

Ah, tea. My love for you is ever changing. At my last update, I was all about the rooibos and now I hardly drink it. I only occasionally had an oolong and now I have one just about every day. I’ve learned the art of resteeping and coldbrewing and kombucha. I have a lovely little tea pet named…well, I haven’t decided on a name for him yet. I also have five! live pets, a tabby cat named Rosabella Francis (Bella for short), a ginger cat named Orange Julius Pekoe (Pekoe), a white and grey cat named Earl Jean Grey (Earlie), a tuxedo cat (and the only boy in the house) Prince Erik Darien Darjeeling (JiJi) and a red foot tortoise named Da Hong Pao (Pao). So if you see me referring to my girls, I don’t have kids, just animals.

As for tea, I love oolongs, herbals, and black tea. Since I am no longer working, I no longer feel the constant need for a mate energy boost, though I do still reach for it from time to time. I also drink less matcha, though I do throw a spoonful or two in when I’m making smoothies. Most of my tea I drink coldbrewed, and since I discovered coldbrewed rooibos was giving me headaches, I’m drinking less and less of it. Straight pu-erh is not a thing I enjoy, but there are a few flavored blends I like. Greens are still too finicky for me to bother with hot, but they make great cold brews.

I am by no means a tea purist. I greatly enjoy flavored teas and I put stevia in all of my teas. It’s just how I do.

I think I’m going to name my tea pet Mr. Turtle. Even though he’s a tortoise.
