What fictional worlds will you be traveling throug

What fictional worlds will you be traveling through this weekend? Anybody heading to The Night Circus? 🎪

Have you seen that our Night Circus blend, The Illusionist is back in the shop? The vanilla, rose, and elderflower black tea is so classy in flavor, but based on Celia who is such a strong character. When I crafted her blend I wanted to allow her softer side to shine, to highlight that even the strongest among us can also be delicate and fragile. Like the love between Celia and Marco 💛 #onetruepairing

As for fictional worlds, I'll be finishing The World That We Knew by Alice Hoffman this weekend, which is set in France and Germany during WWII. Needless to say, I'll be seeking something a little lighter and/or fluffier after this so I'm open to recommendations if you're loving your current read right now 😊

Sound on for wind chime vibes 🔊
I decided to bring Phoenix Song back to the shop early instead of waiting until summer 🙌 Why? Well, frankly, I'm very sad about in person Fair being cancelled again. This blend is based on the booth I'm part of, Phoenix Rising, so I'm trying to bring a bit of Fair magic into my life. The event may be cancelled this year but the spirit doesn't have to be 🍑 Plus, I found some of my old-school, hand-drawn packaging and I couldn't resist the opportunity to show where CMS started vs where it is now 😍

Phoenix Song is the blend for you if you:
🫖 Like your teas full of spices and full-bodied
🫖 Aren't afraid of a little smokiness...
🫖...but wouldn't mind pairing that with a soft pop of citrus!
And remember, all Fair Family blends donate 15% of sales to @whitebirdclinic 🕊️

What's something you've had to postpone (because 2020 🤦‍♀️) that you're looking forward to again when life isn't so crazy? What's a way you can enjoy that thing in some way in the here and now?

It's time for a #booksandtea pairing! The Sweeteas

It's time for a #booksandtea pairing! The Sweeteas book club recently finished reading Some Kind of Happiness by Claire Legrand and WOW!
Even though this is a middle grade novel there are times where it reads older. There is depression, anxiety, and divorce representation in a way that is so mature, realistic, creative, and spot-on. This is the kind of book I wish I had when I was in my tweens and trying to figure out why I couldn't stop feeling like everything was wrong. The main character, Finley, provides us an intimate look into her worlds - the "real" world and the "made up" world she created to deal with her depression.
There's so much I want to say about this book but I don't want to spoil anything for you. I HIGHLY recommend Some Kind of Happiness, especially if you're looking for depression representation 🙌
To match the mood of this story, I paired Ashen Shadows herbal tea with my reading. This is a green tea and lemongrass blend with hints of sweetness from honey powder and linden leaf and flower. While light in flavor, the complex ways the sharp ginger and lemongrass are softened by the linden and honey makes this the perfect blend for reading sessions about hard topics. 🫖📖

Happy #selfcaresunday Sweeteas! 💛 I wanted to t

Happy #selfcaresunday Sweeteas! 💛
I wanted to try something different today and decided to share one of my favorite quotes with you all. I received this quote on a hand-written, tiny scroll tied with ribbon by a living statue person at the 2019 Oregon Country Fair. These words lit me up.
You see, the 2019 Fair was when I was handing out free sampler packs before opening up the shop. It was when I was panicking because I had been trying for 7 futile months to find a job. It was when I started hitting up against a wall in my relationship with Mr Sweetea and my friendships because I was refusing to face my traumas. I was refusing to open up and heal.
Instead, I was clinging to old coping mechanisms, one of which was being so harsh on myself that there was no room for success, no room to grow or thrive.
And then I got this scroll with these life-giving words.
I remember tearing up in the middle of the 8, trying to hold myself together as the weight of all the burdens I've insisted on carrying started falling off of me.
Because you know what I never said I couldn't be?
A success. A strong, confident woman. Loving and beloved. Tenacious. Hard-working. Joyful. Inspiring. Adventurous. Capable.
Be careful what you say about yourself. Oftentimes it is our own words, our own standards, our own mindsets holding us back from everything the universe has to offer us. Open yourself up to all the possibilities the world has for you ✌️
What is something you never said you couldn't be?

Today is the perfect day to share some love for Th

Today is the perfect day to share some love for The Ritz! This blend is chalk full of ingredients that promote calm and relaxing vibes like lavender and chamomile. Since I'm moving at the speed of snail today due to being rather sore from getting my first vaccine dose yesterday I'll likely be sipping on The Ritz before bed tonight 🫖 Did you know: The Ritz is named after my favorite place at Oregon Country Fair 🦩(after the booth I work at, of course). It's a giant, flamingo themed-ish outdoor community "spa" with showers and saunas, live music and fire pits. I absolutely love The Ritz and had to make a blend to honor such a freeing, relaxing space.

What kind of teas do you sip on when you want to relax? And what kind of books do you read before bed? It's #nationallibraryweek in the US and I'm planning on putting far too many books on hold tonight because I'm tired of using my e-reader 😅 plus, I want an excuse to go INTO my library, which is still open only to those picking up holds.

The @virtualmakersmarket2021 event is next weekend

The @virtualmakersmarket2021 event is next weekend and I'm a little stunned to be a part of this market of talented makers.
This time last year I was closed and having major doubts that I'd be able to reopen again. I went back to school thinking that was my only option.
But I couldn't let tea blending go...

Now here we are, and not only am I a part of this market - yesterday I was accepted into a major wholesale market 😱 my weekends are quickly filling with market events, the shop is growing exponentially, and I am just so damn grateful.
I am tired in the best way possible (except today, that's mostly women's stuff causing my exhaustion 😅). I am learning and growing quickly (except for TikTok...oh well 🤷‍♀️). I am finding more and more inspiration for so many blends.
And you all have been helping my business thrive 💛 it's because of your words of encouragement, your regular DMs asking for certain fandom blends, your orders, your unboxings, your reviews - it's because of YOU that I am still here, able to create and provide delicious tea blends 🫖

Thank you. Truly, deeply, from the bottom of my heart THANK YOU. For being here. For supporting small businesses. For rooting for me and all the other makers out there. Thank you.

Let's play a game! . You're caught in the garden,

Let's play a game!
.
You're caught in the garden, at night, unsupervised, in the arms of a notorious rake. What were you doing before you were caught?
.
Battery charge 100-80% - stealing an illicit kiss from the most eligible Duke of the Ton
79-50% - the rake in question is actually holding you back from following (and slapping) the scoundrel who cornered and kissed you against your wishes
49-20% - stumbling upon the grounds, drunkenly contemplating your marital options
19-0% - a true lady never tells 😏
.
This game is brought to you by Delicious Duke! Have you tried this blend yet? It's a creamy concoction of earl grey, black currant, and vanilla that'll perk you up for any late night dalliances you have planned 😉
.
And for the record, I would be stealing an illicit kiss. Which anyone who knows me would not be surprised by 🤣

HAPPIEST OF HAPPY BIRTHDAYS to OG Sweetea, Jaime @

HAPPIEST OF HAPPY BIRTHDAYS to OG Sweetea, Jaime @ofpagesandpinecones 🥳🎂💛 I am so beyond grateful to know Jaime. She is a total Sweetea, an incredibly creative spirit, a generous soul, a thoughtful coworker (reps are totally coworkers!), and a kind, loving friend.
Please join me in sending her all the birthday wishes, if for no other reason than so that she can mildly scold me for sharing that it's her birthday 😜
This picture is, of course, by Jaime and epitomizes the perfect spring day to me.

What's your favorite book or tv/movie that includes fae or fairies? 🧚‍♀️
I was pleasantly surprised by An Enchantment of Ravens and Roses and Rot. They both involve the fae in different ways and showcase their dark nature in such a chilling manner. I highly recommend both books!
🫖🫖🫖🫖
If you'd like to heighten your fae realm experience, I also recommend giving our Fae Wine blend a try. This green tea has marigolds, edible glitter (aka moonbeams) and honeydew melon flavor for a fresh, spring cup of tea.
🫖🫖🫖🫖

Does anybody remember when lockdowns started and folks were sending more snail mail? Are any of you keeping up with handwritten notes now, one year in? If so, who do you write to?
🫖🫖🫖🫖
I will admit, I am the worst pen pal 🙈 I did a few bookish mail swaps last year and I have a friend who regularly sends me snail mail (she is the absolute sweetest and always sending me encouraging notes. Love you, K! 💛💛💛). Beyond that though, I don't really do snail mail. Which is sad, because I used to be on this site called SwapBot and sent snail mail all the time to strangers. Yet I can't even keep up an attempt to send regular postcards to my kid in between visits 😅🤦‍♀️
🫖🫖🫖🫖
If you are a letter writer I highly recommend sipping on some Romp & Circumstance during your next writing session. It'll help you channel your inner Lady Whistledown - but just the excellent vocabulary...unless you want to gossip 😉
🫖🫖🫖🫖
