Often I choose my food based on how it makes me feel psychologically rather than physically. Today was one of those days. I came home from work frustrated and exhausted and just needed to destress myself. I find a pot of flowering tea often does the trick. There is something magical about the way the tea ball opens into a beautiful blossom while the tea steeps and just watching it unfold, gives me a feeling of relaxation.
The real relaxation comes once the tea is ready to consume and I find myself on the couch with a kitty next to me and my knitting in hand!
I have been thinking a lot lately about how I eat...and wanting to change to that psychological way of thinking about it. You do look happy and relaxed, and what can be better than that!

ReplyDeleteI'm new to SPC, Nice to meet you.
I love flowering tea. I was recently introduced to it at one of my favorite sushi places by one of our waitresses - she had some from her personal stash (not on the menu) and she made me a cup of it. YUM!! I love the smell of it.
