What I’ve done today:

• Ate at the Mayor’s Breakfast (tasty! and a free coffee mug, because I need more of those) to kick off this summer’s Dairy Fest in town
• Moved more of my stuff around in the garage that hasn’t been unpacked from school
• Watched “The Help”, crying through the whole thing
• Got my box of Adagio teas in…got a headache smelling them all
• Almost had a spider land on my head (it was literally a foot from me) as it was dropping from the ceiling
• Had a heart attack attempting to kill said spider
• Killed that spider dead (or it’s at least most likely dead and hopefully in the garbage now)
• I think it’s time for a drink and some dinner

Heeeere at long last are the first of the Harry Potter blends. More characters will happen, don’t worry. This is only the beginning.

• Harry Potter: Treacle tarts, Pumpkin Juice and deep, warming spice. Boyish, yet brave, resourceful, and powerful. [pumpkin spice, caramel, masala chai]
• Ronald Weasley: Burning with passion, love and energy, this blend will effectively warm you whenever you need it. A little might go a long way, but still good to always have around. [masala chai, ginger, almond]
• Hermione Granger: Sweet, bright, vibrant notes, with just a lingering smell of parchment and ink. [ceylon sonata, pu erh dante, caramel]
• Severus Snape: Seemingly bitter and severe, this blend is actually quite smooth, with herbal, grassy notes. [white monkey, pu erh dante, yerba mate]
• Remus Lupin: Smooth, dreamy, moonlit Earl Grey. The earthy, dusty smell of the Forbidden Forest. Chocolate to speed recovery. Best served the night after the full moon. [earl grey moonlight, pu erh dante, chocolate chai]
• Sirius Black: Powerful and playful, with bright notes of lemon and ginger, rounded out with strong, smooth Assam. [assam melody, oriental spice, lemon grass]
• James Potter: Refreshingly bright, youthful, and good natured, but with just a bit of a bite lingering beneath the surface. [irish breakfast, candy apple, gingerbread]
• Peter Pettigrew: Damp earth, musty corners, and slightly bitter. Oft overlooked flavors that may take you by surprise. [pu erh dante, artichoke green, gunpowder]

Some enter at the portal. Some do not.
