Ice Water Teas
Day 1: my daughter visited,
Sage – loved them (no rec to this house)
Nutmeg – loved them although she said she embarrassed herself at the house by spilling a glass of water on herself and the couch she was sitting on. (rec)
Jasmine - OK (rec)
Bay Leaf – really wanted to love this house because their symbol was her favorite activity at camp. Experience was just OK (rec)
Clove – was extremely put off when a woman approached her leading with, “Oh, you’re one of those smart girls.” Daughter didn’t know what to say to that. She was thinking about responding “thank you” but instead talked about the focus of her magnet high school. (rec)
Basil – wasn’t feeling it but couldn’t really articulate why. She just said she didn’t feel she‘d fit in. (rec)
Lavender – loved, loved, loved! (multiple recs)
Marjoram – was not expecting to love this house but had a great time talking about all things Disney (rec)
Day 2: she visited,
Thyme – loved them. The most wonderful woman from church gave her a rec here. This alum burst out in song about her sorority when my daughter approached her to ask for the recommendation. (rec)
Cinnamon – had a positive experience (no rec)
Saffron – did not go in expecting to love them – knew two collegiate members from the local university that had been on her dance team (rec)
Rosemary – loved them (no rec)
Cilantro – OK (rec)
Allspice – second least enjoyable experience (no rec)
Ginger – OK (no rec)
