Hello Darlings! I hate cow’s milk, always have. Which really is a bit odd knowing my (more than) slight obsession with just about any cheese I can get my hands on, but never the less, I really just find milk unappetizing.

Tiesta Tea: Kiwi Cherry Bonanza Review
Hello Darlings! I am a bit obsessed with tea, and by a bit, I mean to the point that I collect teapots, obsessed.
