i LOVE tea

So school has been ever so stressful (as is expected and always the case). But the other night when I was trying REAL hard to stay on task and get what I needed to get done, my awesome husband came and surprised me with my most favorite study aid, TEA. Not only was it extremely thoughtful and helpful and perfect for the moment, it was aesthetically pleasing! So of course I took some pictures and became quite inspired. I love being a studio art major and after so many changes and now my seventh year in college, I wouldn't change anything to have arrived at this point. YAY creativity and HORRAH unexpected inspirations...
 ...One of the coolest things about tea lately is the addition of sugar cubes into the kitchen! I've always wanted them and never realized how cheap and accessible they were. Of course I got overboard excited and took pictures...
...and the next day I decided to try to make this tea in ridiculous bulk.. french press tea! It came out incredibly strong. Though I could handle it, I would suggest only 2 tablespoons of loose leaf tea if going this route. AND as you can see, I added a few sugar cubes-3 lumps!    :)

Happy Halloween Times!!

I love autumn!! My husband and I just moved in to our new WONDERFUL home with two great roommates and are loving finally being settled down again. To celebrate the season we've gotten  pumpkins to carve and friends to laugh with! Yay for pumpkin season!

 Though sadly, in just one week, they die... and become perhaps a bit more scary and comical!

The End!
