Welcome to Friendship Tea, a blog of rambling thoughts and daily happenings in the life of Linda, who is passionate about family, friends, life in Kentucky, and all things TEA!
If you happen to be driving down a Kentucky highway and find yourself behind a mini van with this "I Break for Tea" bumper sticker on the back window the driver is likely to be me! I suppose there is a possibility there could be another tea fanatic in the state with one, but I doubt it! *LOL*
I purchased this from Denise here. Be sure to visit her blog Uniquely Tea.
Linda, I could not get an email to go through to you so I will leave you a message here. Thank you so much for visiting my blog 'Our Journey Through Alzheimers'. I really admire you for all your caregiving skills and your loving nature. Yes, we caregivers need to lean on and learn from each other.
I have to tell you a little story. My daughter (who wouldn't blog if she was given a zillion dollars to) had to find a recipe for tea and she goggled in some description for tea. The next day she was telling me 'I found this page with a tea recipe and there was a purple Alzheimer's bracelet on it and the site played music' and I just started laughing. 'That's my Friendship Tea friend's blog'. I thought it so funny.
Thanks again for your kind words. I am getting as much out of that blog as anyone will. Sort of helps to put it in words. Luckily I have kept a journal for years....
Thanks for the "endorsement" Linda! Tony and I just returned from a weeklong cruise to the Bahamas and Florida. I'm catching up on my favorite blogs tonight...hope all is well!
This recipe is for the many hits I receive from searches for "Friendship Tea Recipe" ~~ 1/2 cup instant tea, 1 cup sweetened lemonade mix, 1 cup Tang, 1 tsp. ground cinnamon, 1/2 tsp. ground cloves, Combine all ingredients and mix well. Store in a an airtight container. To serve, put 2 to 3 tsp. mix in a mug and stir in 1 cup of boiling water. Adjust amount of mix to taste. Enjoy!
When the world is all at odds And the mind is all at sea Then cease the useless tedium And brew a cup of tea. There is magic in its' fragrance, There is solace in its' taste; And then laden moments vanish Somehow into space. And the world becomes a lovely thing! There's beauty as you'll see; All because you briefly stopped To brew a cup of tea. ~ Source unknown
