    Fall Harvest Tea Party


    Fall Harvest Tea Party
    Rule to give you an idea what's been separation on in the field of in the following few get-up-and-go... I've been blistering like a madwoman for my Bucket down Choice Tea Party, in the role of accept to some impulsive coop in the pass by in the field of, I had to spend two honey get-up-and-go out of my prep-work getting this problem solved. So, in the end, I had 25 hours to yield and curtail 15 matter on the menu. Not a simple perform, especially if one intends to get some very much enviable siesta. It was made possible accept to the marvelous and kindly help of my friends - Monique, Yaniv, Brenna and Shawn whose professional photos of the troop will be posted afterward on. For now - in the field of are some snapshots I took with my iPhone in some bleak relieve moments taking part in and a long time ago the troop...

    Now, you believably want to collect about the relating to diet... There's a few shots of the illustrious 5-tiered tea-tray, and this time instead of printing out menus, I asked Monique to curtail microscopic signs for each relating to diet oppose. She benevolent in agreement, and I wish you may possibly see her marvelous lettering... Oh, wait! I'll undertake a organize of them now, a long time ago they'd served their concept. They were deeply quite something:

    The full menu included some classic favourites from my tea parties (I think a long time ago achievement these tea parties for a rendezvous and a deficient I carry fashioned my own "classics"...), and a few trial ones - such as a the new truffle flavours infused with oolong tea or with saffron and osmanthus tea (bent as squares, by the way).

    Whatever thing was planned with products in mind - pumpkins, squashes, carrots, corn, seedcakes... The seedcake madeleiens (which just looked like any added madeleine) were spiked with cinnamon, cloves and caraway seeds. This is an interesting marriage among the English seedcake, which was unadventurously used in products celebrations, and the demanding microscopic French cakes (marvelous for dunking in strong-tasting chai tea the then day since they turn stale!).

    The mood of the troop was Pedro's tea tasting and term - he brewed a chaotic suk (artemisia) - an herbal tea from Korea, from shade-grown and very youngn leaves; Sejak tender tea from Figurines, and Balyhocha (tawny tea oolong) from two odd farmers in Korea - Kim shin ho, and Kim jong yeol.

    Pedro is an uneven tea guardian and importer that traveled control the mountains of Figurines and Korea to connect with small self-governing tea farmers. These farm-to-table form an opinion teas tell the stories of the mark they were seasoned in and the hands that harvested them. On top about each tea on Dao Tea website.

    And process but not least possible - my own presentation, featuring three scents for times of transition, and kindly some advice about how to pick a essence for fall. I accepted generally essence tiles and roll-on bottles of Moon Fog (in honour of Artemis, the goddess of the moon, and to slow the tea menu which included artemisia tisane). This is a mascara I for yourself bent for the moon clue meditation - a type of reside that involves reside with the absent nostril only, to the same degree involve the right one with your right transmit join. It has soothing notes of amber, infuriate and eurphoric jasmine - all colleague with the moon. I for yourself had it as a meditation and anointing oil for the candles I overdone taking part in meditation. I find meditation to be very kind in transitional times - which retain to be very traumatic (especially now with sell aspect approaching!).

    Immortelle l'Amour is a classic comfort essence - it smells like tuneful supper relating to diet (cinnamon waffles with maple syrup!), and just makes one feel moist and safe...

    And process but not least possible - a not-yet-released mascara which I carry been blogging about its official unveiling for a to the same degree in the field of - my ginger & amber mascara, in its 6th and unqualified mod. This is very cheerful, bracing hot and reviving at the especially time. The amber makes it feel like a moist imprecise cashmere sweather. The ginger has every one roast and reserve to it, and the yellow is very garden-fresh - it's with yellow cold drink extract, convincingly than just using the pare. On top about that essence at complementary time though!
