Tea and Tales

We're back with another episode of Tea and Tales, and today we're celebrating the Scream franchise!  Scream (5) was just released, and we take a deep dive into the 4 previous installments before reviewing the latest edition.  Spoiler alert - we think the new film is pretty darn great.

As always, we enjoy some tea with our tale, and pair this episode with a herbal/fruit tea from Tazo.  Join us for another episode of Tea and Tales!

It's finally here - our "Weird Food" episode is out (despite Erica's many attempts to discourage the topic).  In this episode we discuss some Thanksgiving traditions, foods we love, and of course - weird food.  Unfortunately due to some timing issues, the episode release was delayed past Thanksgiving, but we still have a great time!  We then dive into some tales dealing with some strange eating choices while drinking an interesting tea blend from Fusion Teas.
