hi abi!!’ (LMAO AUTOCORRECT CHANGED IT TO ANI FOR A SECOND) oolong and ginger for the asks??

ginger: what’s something that never fails to soothe you?

hello caro! well this feels very ironic, but I really do mean it: tea! the warmth that spreads from your mouth to your heart is just...unmatched for me. it can take me from my worst of moods to, well...at least a slightly better mood. also, when people play with my hair. I love when people play with my hair. I used to be a camp counselor and would force my campers to braid my hair. then I cut off fourteen inches and covid happened. so it’s a lot of me trying to convince Ben to play with my hair while we watch a movie and he’s like “play with it? there’s nothing to it? it’s barely even there?” which is...frankly just rude.

☕️ coffee vs tea

ahh this one is so fun!! while i LOVE coffee, it does not love me like many of my favourite foods, so it has to be tea for me! i am a Tea Bitch, the tea cupboard is frankly ridiculously full and i just keep buying more!! it's A Problem lmao

mostly i drink rooibos and herbals, with a lil black tea here and there - some of my current faves are from a local tea shop in my town: meadow morning walk (a spearmint, camomile, nettle blend), rooibos de province (just a fruity rooibos), london fog (an earl grey blend they made with lavender etc. which is fucking lovely), and then a LOT of bird and blend teas! rhubarb and custard rooibos is one fave, dozy girl is another, and then i also have a load of just supermarket types - pukka three mint is a fave (spearmint, peppermint, mountain mint!), and the twinings menopause tea which is a sort of peach and sage thing? purportedly good for hot flushes but hard to tell cos the last thing i want to do when having a hot flush is go make a brew lol

i also like yorkshire tea (of course!!), and their jam and toast and biscuit blends are SO GOOD!! oh yeah also the chocolate digestive tea from bird and blend!!

i also got really into making a low fodmap masala chai myself as well a few years back which is absolutely delicious! boiling the tea in the milk makes a HUGE difference to the flavour, and having fresh spices to use makes it sooo good!! fresh cardamom, YUM!! i highly rec this recipe if you like chai! it's simple and easy to make, and is really really delicious
