Hello
Everyone!
I hope you are
all staying warm. I had the extreme
pleasure to warm up at this fantastic event last weekend. The Toronto Tea Festival was held at the
Toronto Reference Library. It was a day
of sipping and slurping. I seriously
loved it. LOL. Since, this was my first year attending this
event, I had no expectations.
This event did
not just have samples of tea. It had
scones, cookies, honey, jelly, anything and everything made from tea! I was
stunned. I never thought I could enjoy
tea so much. I really LOVE TEA. The event also featured different tea
ceremonies. I had the privilege to watch
the Korean ceremony. I also had the
opportunity to speak with little Sienna.
What a doll!!! She was so cute
and polite, and did a fantastic job in the ceremony. Her eyes lit up like a Christmas tree when my
friend knew some words in Korean. LOL. She kind of did what I usually do, when
someone speaks Italian. Ha-ha.
So, did
someone say Italian? Yes, I found the cutest espresso makers. They were PINK!! Even though, I loved those Pink Espresso
makers, I have to say the highlight of my day was the fantastic tea. David’s Tea just released the flavor, cherry
blossom. YUMMMY!!!! Not only did I enjoy drinking the tea, but, I saw this
amazing tea that opens up like a flower.
It was so pretty! I did purchase
some of the flower tea, but, sadly, I did not make it yet.
I cannot go to
an event without mentioning the food.
LOL. When I first arrived I had
the pleasure of meeting Raelene Gannon.
She has a cook book that has recipes with tea. AMAZED?!
I am. As soon as I try these recipes,
I will let you all know if they are worth a try! I do want to thank T-Buds
Toronto, their chocolate scones were incredible. T-buds Toronto does have an uptown tea
lounge. I hope I can go to see this
lounge soon. I am now a Tea addict.
LOL. Ok, the scones and food went down
smoothly too. (Wink)
I was obsessed
with Cherry last weekend. It started at
David’s Tea and continued throughout the day.
Loved the Cherry Tea Jelly and also loved the Cherry Vegan Lip Balm from
Bare English & Co. Thank you, Bare English, my Tinted Cherry Lip Balm is
keeping my lips moist!!! Bare English does in fact have a huge selection of flavors,
as soon as I try them; you know I will tell you what I think!
I want to
thank Lisa and Rita from the Toronto Tea Festival. I enjoyed my media passes and enjoyed my day
at the Toronto Tea Festival. Thank you
so much for the opportunity to attend this event! I hope to see you both next year!! I LOVE
TEA!!!!!!
Until next
time boys and girls, “remember to always just be yourself, it will eventually
one day pay off…” AND now, ladies and gents, my pictures!!! ©justbeingmeluvuholts
