Tea

I met my friend, Kathy, for tea today. It was really nice to catch up over a cup of warm tea. I can understand why tea is so important in many cultures. It’s soothing for me. We were at a coffee shop in Toluca Lake, CA called Priscilla’s. We used to meet there a lot and would go for a walk in the neighborhood. We’re going to start doing that again.

I go more for plain teas, like green tea, chamomile, and peppermint. There are some really fancy teas I’ve seen at restaurants. There was one tea that came in buds like balls and opened up like flowers when the buds were steeped in hot water. It was pretty to look at. Yerba Mate tea is also a tea I drink sometimes. There are even rituals for drinking that.

I used to be a coffee drinker, but I found that I do better without it. I get wired and irritable when I’m on coffee. It affects me in a funky way. Chocolate agrees with me. I still love the smell of coffee and being in coffee shops. They’re fun places to hang out. I used to sing in some coffee shops in Tucson, AZ. Those were great gigs.

Blessings!
