How many of you got @enchanted_fandoms_ March Capt How many of you got @enchanted_fandoms_ March Capturing the Fandoms box? πŸ™‹ This delicious black tea + rose blend was inspired by none other than Audrey Rose, particularly the different teas she drank in Capturing the Devil. I have every intention of adding it to the shop (under a different name) when I reopen 🌹 🏫 Speaking of fandoms, be sure to enter the Battle of the Fandoms! Check out my last post for details! 🏫 Short and sweet today. Spring term starts now and I have a bunch of reading to do for my classes. May your Monday be glorious! 🏫 Photo by @lifecatsandbookchats
BATTLE OF THE FANDOMS - TEA EDITION! β˜• This is y BATTLE OF THE FANDOMS - TEA EDITION! β˜• This is your chance to CREATE YOUR OWN TEA! 😱😱😱 If you could create your own blend for any fandom, what would it taste like? What fandom would it be for? Would it be based on a character, a place, a creed, a house, a food mentioned in the story? Would you use any specific ingredients? What would you call it? β˜• Seriously, I wanna know! Because YOU LOVES are going to create and vote on a new blend for the shop! I'm going to take aaaaaall the suggestions made today, Friday, April 3rd through Sunday, April 5th and every Monday there's going to be a poll in my stories to narrow down which tea will be made! First we'll narrow down the choices by fandom - if there are 4 ideas for, say, Lord of the Rings, the first vote will be for which tea you want representing that fandom. Then, as the weeks go by, we'll pin fandom against fandom until we get to THE ONE TEA TO RULE THEM ALL! πŸ’ͺ β˜• *Even better, the creator of the winning blend will receive a 2 oz bag of my interpretation of their creation, free! The following top 3 blends will also be made and their creators will receive a 1 oz bag for free!* β˜• This battle is open internationally and is open to those 18+ years old. Any fandom, whether game, tv show, book, comics, or movie is allowed ✌ β˜• *The caveat? I have to reopen first. Which can happen at the beginning of June IF I get some help! There is now a GoFundMe link in my bio! I could really use some help raising $1000 to cover the unexpected licensing and a couple months' worth of kitchen rental fees. If we raise $500, GoFundMe will match it πŸ’› And I KNOW we can do this because we have done great things already together. And I KNOW y'all want your tea again! Seriously, I know because you sweeteas have been sensing me such lovely messages! Thank you so much supporting me, asking when I'll be back, and sharing such encouraging love notes with me πŸ˜­πŸ’› I love you guys SO FREAKING MUCH! YOU are the reason I wake up every morning and feel thrilled to be making tea and living out my calling!* β˜• Okay, time to mix those herbs! What would your tea look like? πŸ‘€ I wanna know! And tag a friend to get in on the fun while you're at it 😁
Happy birthday, Gred and Forge Weasley! πŸŽ‰ πŸŽ‚ Happy birthday, Gred and Forge Weasley! πŸŽ‰ πŸŽ‚ Do you celebrate April Fool's? I never liked it growing up but the Weasley twins made the day far more appealing. I wouldn't mind an order from Weasley's Wizard Wheezes showing up by owl today. I'd order a Pygmy Puff to keep me company while I read and study and some Decoy Detonators to help me out of sticky situations, like when my man says I should try cooking tonight πŸ˜‚πŸ™ˆ What would you order from WWW if you could? πŸŽ‚ Be sure to keep an eye on my feed and stories on Friday! Very exciting, fun things are to come! 😍 πŸŽ‚ Amazing photo of Must Be a Weasley tea (a delicious ginger blend that will absolutely be back when we reopen!) by the amazing @paperroyaltyy
Happy #mugshotmonday Sweeteas! How was your weeken Happy #mugshotmonday Sweeteas! How was your weekend? How are you planning on taking care of yourselves this week? β˜• I'm in the midst of LOTS of shop work! Call Me Sweetea is highly likely to reopen in June, which is AMAZING! I have more details for you coming on Friday so stay tuned for that! Other than doing all.the.things. to prep for reopening, I'm spending this week gathering materials to start spring term (physical books are for my children's literature class 😍), taste-testing a bunch of new blends, and reading a lot of self-improvement books because hey! What better time to take care of yourself and evaluate your habits, well-being, and more than when you're in isolation? Great time to work on yourself! I'm listening to a lot more audiobooks lately which means I'm coloring more (relaxing activity + productive reading = perfect combination!! πŸ‘ŠπŸ’ͺ) β˜• Cinderella coloring page by @halthegal_storyart (new pages coming out in tomorrow's newsletter! The Little Mermaid is happening!) and adorable matching Cinderella mug is by @the.modern.vintage.shop who has matching tees with this design 😍
Happy discussion day! Who's ready to dig into Alic Happy discussion day! Who's ready to dig into Alice's Adventures in Wonderland? πŸ™‹ 🐰 This was the second time I've read Alice. The first time I was mostly confused and ready to finish it as quickly as possible. This time, however, I was able to absorb some of the depth. Alice's journey toward acceptance that she can't control everything, that she needs to be flexible and open-minded really hit me. 🐰 Questions for anyone who has read the story! 1) Was this your first time reading it? If so, what did you think? If not, did you glean something new from the story during this reading? 2) What lessons do you take away from this story? 3) How do you think you'd handle such an adventure if you were in Alice's shoes? 4) What were you drinking while reading? πŸ˜‰
Who's ready for an Alice's Adventures in Wonderlan Who's ready for an Alice's Adventures in Wonderland readalong? πŸ™‹ 🐰 Join me in reading Alice this week! I'll post some discussion questions on Friday. This will be my second time reading Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and the first time I read it was a few years ago for a bookstagram readalong. There's a trend here! 🐰 A couple of quick announcements though! First, the White Bird Clinic fundraiser sale will take place on my feed on WEDNESDAY! I'll explain how it'll work tomorrow or Wednesday morning but get ready! 🐰 Secondly, if you click the link in my bio there is a link there that will take you to my most recent Patreon post. This post goes into detail about what is happening with my shop closure and when to expect new products. Please please give this a read! In an effort to stay transparent with you guys I offered details about what moving forward with tea sales would look like and kept rambling to a minimum (it is still a long read though, so make some tea first!). Highlights include steps I need to take, cost breakdown and possible fundraising (if necessary), and vague merch timelines. 🐰 Okay, business info is done for now. Time to party like a Mad Hatter and get reading! 🐰 PS: these mugs were designed by the amazing @the.modern.vintage.shop for the Mad Tea Party box BUT...she sent me extra πŸ’™ extra mugs will be on sale in the shop SOON and the last two Alice boxes will be for sale in the fundraiser on Wednesday!
Postapocalyptic Tea Party - the perfect blend to r Postapocalyptic Tea Party - the perfect blend to release during these times. I'm kicking myself for not having gotten this out sooner 😭 β˜• Hi and hello loves and welcome to FRIDAY! If you're in the US you likely just survived your first week of self-isolation and are feeling the eerie-ness of all the virus effects still. (Everywhere else, forgive my ignorance as I don't know how your countries are dealing with the outbreak πŸ™ˆ I try to avoid the news for my own mental health reasons.) What have you been doing to stay busy this week? Have you been able to continue working? Do your kids understand what's going on, how are they doing? β˜• I've been spending the week trying to sort out my spring term university schedule (figure might as well go back to school online if I'm going to be quarantined and not able to work steadily for a bit) and trying to figure out what to do with the shop. As of right now, I'm leaning toward merch to raise the funds I need to get back into tea. I've found means to keep making tea and to do so in the proper, licensed manner but the upfront costs will take some time to gather. I would LOVE to reintroduce tea into the shop by fall! Do you think y'all could help with that? Tell me which fandoms you'd love to see merch for - book or movie/show/theatre! I have a ton of ideas already brewing but I know I'm forgetting some great fandoms so don't be afraid to make suggestions! β˜• Eerily timed photo by the on-point @ofpagesandpinecones
Wednesday check-in: how are you? How are you spend Wednesday check-in: how are you? How are you spending your time lately? What is something joyful that you've experienced in the past couple of days? 🍡 I will admit, the timing of having to close my shop when the world is on hold and not being able to communicate with those I need to speak to in order to reopen has left me with all sorts of confusing and scary feels. As of this writing, there's a poll in my stories asking if y'all would be open to helping me fundraise to keep the tea shop open or if I should switch to merch (please please please take a few minutes to listen to my update and answer the poll honestly! Your feedback is greatly appreciated and needed right now πŸ’›) 🍡 BUT! Even with all these crazy feelings I am so grateful to see so many people support each other during this time of uncertainty. It is during a time of crises that we're most able to reprioritize and learn what matters most to us. This emergency is reminding me how much I love all of YOU and what our community is all about. It's reminding me of how fragile we all are, of how important it is to maintain certain traditions like gardening and connecting with loved ones. It's reminding me to take care of my damn self, which y'all know I preach a lot on here in large part because it is something I struggle with the most (I absolutely use Instagram as a mirror and talk to myself on here πŸ˜…). 🍡 So I am claiming today and tomorrow as self-care days for me, a rarity if ever there was one. I'll be drinking some Fairy Dust (which, if you know your herbs, you may be able to guess why I'm drinking that at this particular time of the month πŸ˜‰ plus we need some fairy magic right now), reading finally, gardening, and coloring all the pages! (Pssst: @halthegal_storyart has free coloring pages!) Tomorrow is also Ostara, so I'll be sure to spend time in the sunshine and meditating on all the good in the world during this crazy time. 🍡 Fabulous photo by the fantastic @ofpagesandpinecones
