#best09: tea for two

Dec 16, 2009 by     2 Comments    Posted under: Best '09

As part of the Best of 2009 Blog Challenge I’ll be blogging daily on the bests of 2009. Better than a fruit cake.

{December 16 Tea of the year. I can taste my favorite tea right now. What’s yours?}

As I’ve mentioned before, I’m a Diet Coke girl.

Don’t drink much tea, or coffee. But the one thing that I love about both tea and coffee, is the experience people have around a warm liquid. Something about a hot cup of tea or coffee makes a situation more intimate than cracking open a soda can.

I’ve had a few tea experiences this year, a few with my good friend Elizabeth Irvine, and more recently, on a Saturday morning with a very special person, who continually brings me comfort and peace of mind. Someone who makes me slow down and take in what a great year this has been. He even had to make me drink the tea.

For me, it’s not about the flavor of the tea, but the warmth of the conversation it provides.

  • a-ha! I see we are kindreds based on our desires to drink warm liquids being… connection… and we both have a certain special some one in our lives… I feel warm just thinking about him.. I mean, it.

  • You're totally right! Drinking tea (and coffee) has something "cozy" to it.
