Have you been wondering what the “steeping” part of my title is about?

I realize that I need to do a better job of incorporating the tea I love into the beauty of this site.  Most blogs I visit promote coffee, well, I’m sorry to say that I drink coffee and enjoy it when I do but I’m really looking for serenity and beauty.  Tea gives you both and is delicious to me, I don’t normally add sugar, I just like the feeling of drinking something pure and good for me.

I drink any and all types of tea.  I first started liking tea while living in Japan… I worked as an English Communications Instructor for 4 years and it is their custom to serve a beverage.  I didn’t really like coffee and it seemed like more trouble, so I would ask for tea.  They always had the water ready so it was very practical.

 It’s been a few weeks since I made myself some tea, I’ll blame the heat and basic laziness (not wanting to do anything extra).  Now I’m turning a new leaf - AGAIN!  let the tea steeping being…

    You have much more beauty than sleeping - do you need ideas for tea blogs? May I suggest Tasseography?
    I’ve recently authored an article on ‘Tea Leaf Divination’ for Associated Content.

    Have a look and use the content if you like - its an easy post on tea and your readers might find the spiritual elements of Tasseography quite interesting.

    Dear Delphine, I’m glad to hear that you’re planning to resume your tea-drinking. I honestly don’t think there’s a more healthful and wholesome drink on earth. Even water doesn’t give you antioxidants!

    You mentioned “not wanting to do anything extra.” Convenience is certainly an issue with tea. May I suggest selecting tea that comes in clear, pyramid sachets made of food-grade nylon. They preserve the whole leaf tea experience (because your tea leaves have plenty of room to unfurl beautifully), yet you keep the convenience of a tea bag!

    Sincerely,
    Chai Baby
