I don't often go to the mall, but wanted to take advantage of some good sales today. While there, on my niece's recommendation, I decided to check out Teavana. Wow! First, the gorgeous cast- iron teapots caught my eye. Then a salesclerk offered me samples of three teas, all of which were delicious. I ended up purchasing a few ounces of strawberry rose champagne oolong, which I thought was fabulous. I can say with certainty that I've never in my life spent as much per ounce for loose tea! They tried to also sell me a very pricey tea storage tin as well as a few other tea-related accessories, and I declined.
I don't plan to go into the store often--it's so expensive--but it got me thinking about teas in a new way. I wonder if tea might gain the popularity in the States that coffee has. It's likely more healthy, and there certainly are some tasty blends available. A few years ago, when DH and I were in China, I noticed that everyone was walking around drinking interesting-looking teas, many in the kinds of clear travel cups that I saw today at Teavana.
Until today, I never thought I might someday replace my two-cup-a-day coffee habit with tea, but now I can actually imagine it!
