Today’s tea tidbit:
Tea tempers the spirits and harmonizes the mind, dispels lassitude and relieves fatigue, awakens thought and prevents drowsiness, lightens or refreshes
the body, and clears the perceptive faculties. — Confucius

Fall and Holidays
by Kelly F. Barr

There’s a chill in the air,
Colorful leaves are everywhere.
Pumpkin is the feature flavor
Of drinks, desserts, and soup to savor.

Harvest time is nearly past;
The holidays approaching fast.
It’s my favorite time of the year
Drawing friends and family near.
