Happy Thanksgiving to my Canadian friends!
There's something strange in my neighbourhood...
I aint fraid'a no ghosts!
September tea empties
What I repurchased during DavidsTea's summer sale:
1) Cherry Berry Punch black tea
2) Sleepy Lychee fruit infusion - it was a bonus free tea on one of my online orders.
3) Tropicalia fruit infusion
What I may repurchase:
1) DavidsTea's Melon Drop fruit infusion - I'm kicking myself for not buying some when they were on sale. Now they're sold out!
Last week, I participated in a fun Cuppa-tea-athon hosted by Instagram tea bloggers, @bibliovirgo @thismorningstea and @picnic_indoors.

How do I love pumpkins in the fall? Let me count the ways.
As we transition into the cozy fall season, I've been filling my cups with delicious maple, caramel, or toffee teas!
Maple Teas

Right: The Dark Side is a smokey maple blend.
Do I need more teacups? No.
But that didn't stop me from rescuing two beauties at a garage sale last month!
I was proud of myself for exercising some restraint and bringing only one teacup home...
As soon as the calendar flipped to September, I was all about the cute pumpkins and autumn decor!
My stack of vintage Johnson Brothers brown transferware teacups. My brown betty teapot is covered by a handmade owl tea cozy (a gift from a co-worker).
My small glass teapot filled with miniature white velvet pumpkins.
My pumpkin teapot (Kaldun & Bogle) paired beautifully with my new pumpkin mug (Chapters Indigo has the cutest seasonal mugs!).
My orange lusterwares
Other autumn staples: apple cider teas...
....and chais galore!
(The autumn teas will get their own posts over the next few months.)
Have you started decorating for autumn?
August sipped away like a bottle of tea!

I loved DavidsTea's creamy and delicious Tropicalia fruit infusion so much that I've stocked up on this pina colada blend multiple times over the summer!
I've never met a cold-brewed coconut tea that I didn't like!
