Life’s Short. Relax. Drink Some Tea

In an attempt to curb caffeine intake and drink something other than coffee, we visited our local Teavana store and picked up a tea starter kit. They have a growing number of locations. I guess tea is hip at the moment. They describe themselves as:

Teavana… a place that many consider a heaven for tea drinkers. Over 100 kinds of Fresh Tea. Beautiful Teapots. etc…..From the lush hillside plantations of India and Nepal to rolling waves of green tea in Japan, we have sought out the world’s freshest and finest teas for your palate to embrace and fill your senses with the wonders of the world’s oldest and most healthful beverage. We source only the highest quality and freshest teas bringing them from the tea estates fresh every month into the United States.

After experimenting with different quantities of tea, water temperature and steeping times, We are starting to get the hang of it. Who knew that you could make a hobby out of tea?
