WELCOME TO SEASON 2 OF MY ~BACKYARD BEAUTIFICATION PROJECT~

Last year we covered the meat and potatoes, so this year we are expanding and focusing on the GREENERY AND GARDENING!

In this episode I refresh the sandbox from last year, and start in my v ambitious garden that I planned out meticulously but neglected to measure anything or consider the necessary amount of soil needed! Nevertheless we will persist my friends!

I am so excited to have a big big garden this year and all the fresh veggies so I’m gonna make it work! I’m also expanding my herb garden since it FLOURISHED last year and it was just so handy to have so many fresh herbs on hand at all times when I was cooking!

Need episode we are gonna continue on with the garden process and I also want to expand the grill patio a bit!

See ya in the next one byeee

LETS MAKE: Birthday Cake Breakfast Assam Black Tea

The blend:
•2 cups Vanilla or Bday Cake flavored ORGANIC ASSAM CTC tea
•1/4 cups Carob
•1/2 cup dehydrated marshmallows
•1/4 cup rainbow sprinkles

To flavour the tea I use LorAnn super strength flavors. I do 1 part flavor oil to 4 parts everclear.
Spritz it over the tea, I start with 10 spritzes per cup of tea, and go from there. Shake the tea well to disperse the flavor and let it dry for a few hours before blending

This blend is best drank HOT w milk & honey (imo)! I do a heaping tea scoop steeped in 6oz freshly boiled water, and let it steep for 5-6 mins. I like my tea very strong be I’m a coffee girl at heart hahah I then add a splash of cream and a bit of honey and it is DELISH!

✨ REVERSE ENGINEERING A TEA BLEND IVE NEVER HAD BEFORE 🥥🍦 // today I attempted to recreate the discontinued Coconut Cream Pie blend by David’s Tea that was submitted by Christie!

I used a reference photo of the blend I found online + the listed ingredients to do this. This one was… in the end… delicious! Even though it was a process to get it to taste how I wanted… it turned out amazing. I ended up with two blends to send to Christie (plus someone from the comments) so you guys can lmk (if you want) what you think / which you prefer!!

This was so fun!!
See ya in next week’s episode 🤍✨

PSA: I will only be considering submissions that are submitted on the form on my site. It is too complicated to try to keep track of suggestions in my comments, so that is why I set up the form. :)

It’s mom lunch o’clock & it’s spring… so that obviously means it’s time for a MOM SALAD AND A TEA DRINKY.

It may be freezing cold outside but it IS spring. Okay. Spring is here. I refuse to stop engaging in springtime festivities just because we keep getting snow.

I refuse.

My fav part of my day is often my mid-day tea drinky. It’s typically Iced. Typically a black tea. For months it’s exclusively been a mango black iced tea but I’m ready to mix it up.

I want a black tea, I want honey notes, I want juicy peachy notes, I want it to be brisk & crisp & yummy.
I mixed some havukal winter harvest black tea + honeybush + peach flavored freeze dried peaches & honey. I gotta say this is SO close to being what I want. I’m gonna play around with it some more because… I think this could be a winner!!!

My salad was a borderline atrocity haha I needed to use up so much stuff in my fridge and… yeah. I mean it was edible and fine 😂 but my lettuce wasn’t crispy, which is… basically a deal breaker… and I wanted arugula but it was bad… and yeah. Whatever. TOMORROWS WILL BE BETTER.

Anyway. If you made it through this video, thank you. Haha ILY BYE HAVE A GOOD DAY XOXOXOXO
