Tea Time Let’s each have a cup of Earl Grey Maybe a hot scone with butter Newly met, we have much to say Our first time together goes well Perhaps there will be more tea times

Back with congrats. Way to go! I drink teas with lots of fun names invented for them. So tension Tamer is for stress.

Thank you Karen. My preference is more Irish breakfast, Earl Grey-or my favorite is Lemon herbal.

I have never heard of tension tamer. I am more of a straight tea drinker. Nothing fancy. Thanks for reading Andrea.
