The level in the cup never rises.
The pot is never empty, its angle never changes.

there are two kinds of people

Finally, I’ve made some fandom blends! I got the prototypes in the mail today and tweaked the ratios a bit, and I think they’re worthy of going public now.
Disney President, Vanellope’s, is a black tea with candy cane, vanilla, and cinnamon flavoring.
Wreck It!, Ralph’s (obviously), includes vanilla oolong, gingerbread black tea, and berries.
They go for Adagio’s standard price of $10 for 3oz, or you can buy them both at a 20% discount (although the “shipping” terminology is kind of unfortunate for this particular pair). If you’ve never ordered from Adagio before and you’re interested, you should know that they offer $5 discounts for members to give to first-time customers! I think you can only use each one once (someone who has given them out before please correct me if I’m wrong) so drop me a line if you want one.
(Felix and Calhoun are coming next!)

I wanted to draw cute clothes, and I really wanted some tea.

OH MAN THESE ARE REALLY PRETTY
Okay here’s the tea I make when I’m feeling gross and sick and need comfort. Don’t judge me until you try it.
-it starts innocently enough. You get a bag of earl grey tea. I’ve started using Reichenbach Recovery because yum.
-instead of boiling water though, heat up some milk in a sauce pan to a gentle boil (you don’t want to scald or burn the milk)
-pour the milk into your mug, and let the tea steep. I let it steep longer in milk than in water, generally. Usually a good ten minutes.
-okay this is where you ate probably going to go “cara no why”, because now you add butter.
-shut up for a second
-not much butter. Like a teaspoon. Just stir it on in there, with a little honey too.
-now sprinkle a tiny bit of salt on top
-see, I had read a few years ago, about Tibetan Yak Butter tea, and while I don’t have access to yaks or yak butter, I was intrigued, because I’m of the Paula Deen school of “butter is generally great”
-so I tried adding regular butter to tea
-it took some experimenting to get something that wasn’t terrible
-but I’ve settled on this technique
-it’s pretty darn rich though, so I limit it to when I’m feeling achey or super depressed
-shhhhh don’t judge me.
