What's a little marriage between friends? 

Mia has been Braxton's best friend for years. Even when they no longer lived in the same foster family, even after he'd aged out of the system, he'd continued look out for the one person who got under his skin and made him care.

For the last six years, Mia's been keeping her head down, putting one foot in front of the other, unable to trust anyone with her secrets—including the foster brother who's been the one bright spot in her life, as well as her secret crush.

Just one more day until Mia turns eighteen—a legal adult. Brax doesn't trust her foster father and wants her out of that house. Is proposing a marriage of convenience to your best friend a little drastic? Maybe so. But what Brax feels is so far beyond friendship. Is it possible Mia feels it, too? next book in series >

Review of Adagio’s Children of Lir Tea

Children of Lir.  This one comes in a delightful little tin illustrating the cursing of Lir’s children to be turned into swans.  I found it really hard to get the tea OUT of the tin without making a mess (it is packed full to the brim).  I love the smell of this tea.  The hazelnut and chestnut notes are really strong when you open the tin.  They’re far subtler notes when actually steeped (which I did for 5 minutes because it’s a black tea and that’s what I do with black teas).  With a couple of spoonfuls of turbinado sugar and some half and half, this is a truly lovely afternoon cuppa.



From Adagio:

The Children of Lir is an Irish legend that starts with Bodb Derg being eleceted as king. Wanting to appease his rival, Lir, Bodb gave one of his daughters, Aoibh, to Lir to marry. They were very happy together and she bore Lir four children – one daughter and three sons. Sadly, Aoibh died. Wanting to keep Lir happy, Bodb sent another of his daughters, Aoife, to Lir to marry. Aoife was jealous of Lir’s affection for his children and plotted to get rid of them. One day while Aoife was traveling with the children, she decided to solve her problems by using her magical powers to turn the children into swans. The children were cursed to spend 900 years as swans before finally being turned back into humans and perishing of old age soon after. Suggested brewing instructions: 212 degrees for 3 mins.


Ingredients
Blended With Black Tea, Assam Melody Tea, Ceylon Sonata Tea, Natural Hazelnut Flavor, Natural Chestnut Flavor
Accented With Cornflowers, Marigold Flowers And Ginger

Teas: Irish BreakfastChestnutHazelnut

Review of Adagio’s Thai Chai Tea

I am a lucky duck!  Being that I’m a big fan of tea, the fabulous folks at Adagio gave me a chance to review some of their teas.  Of course I said HELL YES!  Teenager and I pored over their catalog and picked out samples of about ten different teas and have been slowly working our way through them around vacation and all the crazy of summer (how is she busier now than she was during school???).



We started with Thai Chai , which is just fun to say.  Had as a post dinner beverage following massaman curry from Paleo Takeout (which has a similar spice palette).  From Adagio:



Creamy sweet coconut and playfully floral lemongrass highlight this succulent black tea chai blend. Let the aroma draw you in and you’ll swear, you hear it beckoning to come closer, just take a sip. We suggest two heaping teaspoons per 8 oz cup, sugar, cream or coconut milk if desired.
This tea contains a high level of caffeine | Steep at 212° for 5 minutes.



I have never been a big fan of chai.  This one ended up being a random sample that got thrown in and as we dig this spice palette in curry, we thought we’d give it a try.  I added a couple of spoonfuls of turbinado sugar and half and half.  The verdict: I think I should’ve used more tea (I didn’t manage to use the two heaping spoonfuls), so overall it was a little bit weak for my taste, but the overall flavor was quite pleasant.  The lemongrass was a really lovely note.  Definitely worth trying again.
