Bridal Shower Tea


I have bridal shower tea coming up, so I was matching the tea cups and saucers.  I was told they expected 75-100.

Since it was come and go, I decided I wouldn't need 100 tea cups and saucers, we could wash them if we needed more.

I had fun going through all my cups and saucers and making sets...I was shocked to realize how many I actually had.


        


My mom, the world's best tea assistant, came along to help.  I could not have kept up with everything with out her!!!

We had a table with cups and saucers for guests to pick out what dishes they wanted to use.


They then had a tea stand for me to use.  It was so nice to put out my teapots and the iced tea on the stand.



The tables looked great.  The bride to be made candles out of teacups she picked up at second hand stores, set out teapots, fresh flowers, books and then had fresh cut fruit.  








A plus of working a tea like this, I usually get some food too, lol.  I told my mom to eat up, because there was her pay.  The food was excellent everything was home made.





The food was incredible.....





Even more tasty food!




Let me know if you would like tea at your next event!

Maybe a wedding, graduation party, baby shower, bridal shower, office picnic, church picnic, family gathering, book club, Bible study, etc.  I can bring the tea to you.







For educational teas for groups over 20 people I charge $8 a person.
Over 50- $7 a person and over 100 - $6 a person.

Mohana Ramen & Boba Tea, Plum Oolong with Cheese foam

Wednesday Wanderings brought me to Canton on Valentines Day.

I decided to try the Ramen restaurant as I had never been to one before.



There were so many options for the Ramen.  I decided to go basic and then I added squid.  I also was trying to stick to a budget.   The food was good, but I hate to pay over $10 for a lunch - especially when there are no left overs.


They had a lot of drink options as well.  I love oolong, so I thought I would try the plum oolong.
I was a bit disappointed with the oolong tea, it was over steeped and a bit bitter.


The ramen was tasty, but I would like a little more flavor in my broth.  It felt everything was added when I ordered to a plain broth.  If I ever got it again, I would get it to go and put it in the fridge for another meal, letting the flavors blend.


Obviously, I wasn't too upset about the broth, I finished it all, lol!


Overall, I think for me it was fun and unique experience, but for the cost and lack of flavor in the broth and the over steeped tea, I don't think I will go back.


I decided to try the mochi donuts, they were tasty.




Plum oolong cheese foam tea - I am giving 2 teacups.  The oolong was over steeped, the price was a little high.  The cheese foam was fun though.
Cheese foam is made with cream cheese, it’s like a foamy, mousse cheesecake.  You sorta eat the foam as well as drink the tea 


I enjoyed a Ube Mochi Donut the next day.

Ohio Tea is open in their new location!!!

I was so excited that Ohio Tea Co had opened their new location, that I planned my day off around it!!
They opened on a Tuesday, but I went the next day on my Wednesday off.

The new location is less than a mile from their old location.  If you are familiar with Fulton Road in Canton- they are diagonal from Fisher Foods.


Look at these walls of teas!
And room for more!  They have "400 of the finest loose leaf pure teas, tisanes, unique hand-blends and herbs and accessories from around the world, there is sure to be something for everyone" - From their website.


They have their tins of tea beautifully displayed and then beside the tins are little tins that you can open and smell.  You can see what the tea looks like.  There is also a pricing guide to help you know how much you want to buy.  

They sell tea by the ounce... 1 ounce, 2 ounce, 4 ounce ( you get 20% off), 8 ounce (35% off), and 16 ounce (45% off)


I was excited to see a Laura Childs book on the shelf.  I adore her tea mystery books. 


So much more space.  It is looking fantastic.


Below is their Oolong shipping crate...


Here is my free crate I want to turn into an oolong shipping crate.


So excited for them!!!  




Stop in to the new location!!!
