:: Winter Warmer ::

Winter has well and truly hit Brisbane. And I don't just mean the fact that the first official day of Winter was yesterday. I mean that I spent yesterday rugged up in three tops, long pants, and two pairs of socks.  I realise that "Brisbane cold" does not really measure up to "real cold" standards, but spending most of my life living in a semi-tropical climate has made me a big wuss!


When the cooler months hit, I drown myself in entirely too much tea. The above tea towers were a wedding gift from an unknown guest! They came with no tag and we haven't managed to find the giver yet. I love them - such amazing flavours (Coconut Chai? Yes, please!) and best of all - they're organic and fair trade certified, certified gluten and allergen free AND the tin they come in is also recyclable (should I ever feel the need to throw the prettiness out).

So far my favourites are Coconut Chai, Raspberry Earl and Peach Ginger. Mmmm!


Are you a tea drinker? What's your favourite flavour? I like good old English Breakfast and Orange Pekoe on an everyday basis. I also like to indulge in a chai latte sometimes when I go out!
