I have a strange relationship with tea. I love the *concept* of tea, but rarely the actuality. I wander the tea aisle at the grocery store and look at all of the delightful-sounding options: tea to wake up, take to relax, tea to energize, tea with antioxidants to prevent cancer, black tea, green tea, herbal tea. I often wind up buying something that sounds (and smells!) irresistible, and then I get it home and never touch it.

Yesterday, I bought a box of Tazo tea, a sampler pack. I love iced chai lattes when I go to B&N for knitting night, and I thought it would nice to have some tea on hand for the ladies who came over last night. Look at how pretty they are in the bowl (which is a handmade pottery bowl my mother bought me at the WV Folk Festival, btw)! I've already used the 2 chai teabags that were in the sampler, and they're AWESOME. I have high hopes for the rest.
