Good Sunday morning and welcome to my front porch for Sunday Morning Tea!

For the uninitiated, Sunday Morning Tea is my virtual writing salon, where we talk about our writing goals and projects while sipping on a hot cuppa tea!

This morning, I’m drinking my second-favorite tea blend, Stash’s Wild Raspberry Hibiscus (previously my favorite before I discovered Harney & Sons Hot Cinnamon Spice and swiftly became addicted). I’ve never been a big fan of herbal tea, my mom is a black tea drinker, and I am my mother’s daughter, so I drink it too.

To clarify, she’s a drinker of black tea, though she is also Black, so…unintentional pun there! 😀

My aunt was that one who introduced me to the hibiscus tea, and immediately I was hooked on the floral aroma, the tangy sweetness. I like to have it with a lemon wedge and a teaspoon of honey.

I used to buy this tea at one of my favorite health foods stores—the only store in town that seemingly had the tea in stock—and when the store went out of business, I was devastated. But my mom ordered me a year’s supply on Stash’s website that Christmas, which I probably could have done myself, but I was a happy girl either way!

Anyway, enough about tea. Let’s talk about writing, shall we?
