From sneakers to Sorels, this week represented the worst of March. Monday was (relatively) warm, sunny, and I was freed from the stomp-clomp of winter boots. By Saturday, however, it back to the winter boots. Just over 10mm of snow had fallen and would continue to fall through to the noon hour.
Although it had the makings of day for us to stay inside and just hobby, we resisted that urge and decided to take a quick walk to the Byward Market. Our main reason for going?
Tea!
We’ve both been having fun expanding our tea horizons lately and have been trying all sorts of different teas. With our supplies running out, instead of ordering online, we decided to visit the Market’s long-standing Tea Store, which boasts over 200 different teas.
Since I’ve been mostly into the fruit teas, I chose Bingo Blueberry and Pear Cream, while Kathleen chose Bourbon Street Vanilla Rooibos and Chocolate Mint Rooibos.
