A lovely debut collection of prose and poetry. Enjoyed reading. A mature collection of writings. Felt connected even though experiences vary. Highly recommended.

As an avid tea drinker, reader, and scratch baker - this book fits well in my wheelhouse! Imagine pairing your favorite classic books with a savory or sweet treat! All I had to see was Earl Grey Dark Chocolate Lavender Truffles - definitely making those this weekend. Custom recipes and blended teas. What a wonderful and inspirational pairing for a reader! Love this book and hope there's a follow up.
