Tea List

Current Tea Spirits

My first Tea Spirit, I won it from the art contest that was held in September. It is a medium-grade Pu-ehr tea.

This particular type is made from young leaves, and has a sweet flavor and smokey aroma that smells of red clover and honey.

Look! It has words now!
While searching for a piece of literature for it, I came across a piece of a poem, by Edna St. Vincent Millay.
Renascence
After reading it in its entirety, It solidified my decision to use this excerpt for my tea.

"Ah! Up then from the ground sprang I
And hailed the earth with such a cry
As is not heard save from a man
Who has been dead, and lives again."

My tea spirit has emerged leapt into existence! A handsome wallaby, with a little ruff of bright green clover about its neck, and lingering roots on its tail.

Other Pets I Own

These three are my dragons from my own shop, Elemental Dragon Spirits. They tend to hang around my shop, greeting guests, playing with dustbunnies, or lazily ribboning through the air. Chakra particularly enjoys cuddling on the couch.



Ariake is an adult Kylandrei with sunrise-colored fur. I love the time of day (night?) when the sun is starting to rise, but the moon is still out.



Ouji is my first and only Dream. There was a Katamari Damacy-themed auction at The Dream Realm, and I had to snatch him up. And give him this stylish scarf.



Nobody. Not anymore.
Phoenix isn't anyone. He probably was at one point, but that doesn't matter now. He tends to keep to himself, defying gravity, melting things, playing his flute. Not that it matters.



My very own Treebaby! Tooli has grown into a squishy little baby, with only a little sprout on its head to hint at the tree to come. So cute heart

Other Stuff

Here is a picture of my winning contest entry:



I call it a 'humblebee'. It is made from aluminium foil, sequins, tea leaves, acrylic paint, glue, and maple seed-wings.
