Today would’ve been my mama’s 64th birthday AND my parents’ wedding anniversary. Today is also the day I chose to start Adjourn 7 years ago. 🥹💕
I lost them both to cancer before I turned 30. Somewhere inside that grief, I found tea. Or maybe tea found me.
Adjourn was born from that love and longing. From learning how to sit with memory. How to soften. How to keep breathing. Every blend, every pour, every intentional PAUSE carries their fingerprints.
My parents taught me a love that was patient, earnest, authentic, and deeply caring. Adjourn is a reflection of that love in real time. I truly hope you feel it even in my quiet moments.
I miss them terribly. And I honor them with every beautiful thing I continue to build.
Happy Birthday, Mama. Happy Anniversary to my first example of devotion. Thank y’all for continuing to adjourn with me for 7 whole asa years!!
With gratitude always…LaTonia ❤️
