In my quest to learn who I am and what I like, I have developed a love for tea. Black, green, white, herbal and medicinal tea. I love to sample new flavors. My stash has outgrown the breadbox in which I house it. I drink tea to wake up, bring focus, feel good, reduce tension and induce sleep. I love the way it smells, how it tastes and the sight of it in a tea pot. I also love what it has to say.

Yes, what it has to say. Interesting quips, quotes and proverbs adorn the boxes that encase my precious tea. (Some brands, anyway).

Now, my blogging friends, I am going to share one of my personal joys with you. I cannot have you over for a cuppa, but we can experience one aspect together. Each week I am going to post some of my tea box treasures for your reading enjoyment and personal enlightenment.
