From the Shores of the Ottawa River

Lately, I’ve been reflecting on how easily we can take the wonderful people in our lives for granted.

To fully embrace our connections this summer, I’d invite you all to consider inviting your BFF to tea, where you can enjoy some tea without distractions. (or coffee, if that’s your preference)

Imagine this: a lovely afternoon spent without the distractions of TV or our phones—just you and your BFF, catching up in a warm and inviting atmosphere, beyond the surface chit-chat.

It’s about deepening bonds, listening, and sharing meaningfully. Let’s kick off this little “tea ceremony” by the end of Summer. I believe it’ll become a cherished ritual you can all look forward to, enhancing your feelings of connection and belonging. I can’t wait to sip tea, share stories, and reconnect with my friend Maggie.

We have been having “tea” virtually for years because we live in separate provinces. I look forward to hearing about her children, work, and parents. 💖 My tea of choice is matcha. I enjoy matcha, and it elevates our tea perfectly.
