So this is not one from my advent calendar. It is from my mom's advent calendar. Before brewing, the scents reminds me of warm sugar cookies. After brewing its definitely giving cookie flavor. Which I was not expecting given that it is a black tea. I did use slightly to much water longer brew time than is recommended, as I had this at work and not with my usual brewing set up. All that said, this in one I would drink on a regular basis. I will update this when I get home and figure out how to obtain more.

As a reminder, I do not get paid for these. I've decided to try something new for 2025, a Tea Advent Calendar. I will be honest, I'm not a pumpkin spice girl.  That being said, as dry ingredients, this has a very strong pumpkin spice scent, with cloves being the strongest of the spice scents. I did the recommended 5 min brewimg time using water from an electric kettle. Once brewed, it tasted of black tea and cloves. The pumpkin spice flavor didn't really show up until after the brew had begun to be more cold than hot and during the afterrtaste phase of the tea. Overall, its not a bad tea.  Isn't one I would like to aquire more of? Not really, but it's a decent tea.

" Of such great powers of beings there may be conceivably a survival...a survival of a hugely remote period when...conciousness was manifested, perhaps in the shapes and forms long since withdrawn before the tide of advancing humanity...forms of which poetry and legend alone have caught a fyling memory and called them gods, monsters, mythical beings of all sorts and kinds" - Algernon Blackwood

For centuries, sailors whispered tales of a monstrous sea creature lurking beneath the waves—an enormous beast with tentacles powerful enough to drag entire ships into the abyss. This legendary sea te...

1. Welcome to National Cryptid Month: A Celebration of the Strange and Spectacular It’s officially National Cryptid Month, a time to embrace the weird, the wild, and the downright wonderful! Whether you’re a fan of folklore, a lover of legends, or just here for the Mothman memes, this month is all about appreciating the mysterious creatures that haunt our imaginations.

I apologize for the unexpected hiatus I took this month. There has been so much going on that I haven't had time/the mental energy to stop and write anything down. 

Hi hi, So this is just going to be a quick update or sorts. I'll post a more updated one after Convivial. I've had not 1, but 3 events confirm me as a vendor. That makes 5 for this year, 4 less than 2024, but I have a better feeling about these shows, compared to the events I did last year.
