Hi there - I'm Nightfall. Feel free to pull up a cushion, a drink and some nibbles. What's on your mind?

I live in Southern California - I'm a mom, a wife and a woman, not necessarily in that order.

Hello Nightfall

*munches on nibbles*

Where do you live in CA, near the sea?

Not close enough to escape this summer desert heat *gah*, but close enough to drive there whenever I want. My skin isn't fond of the sun, but I *love* late afternoons on the beach.

Oh, I love the beach! I always wanted to live *at* the beach--but at least they are all within an hours driving distance--even if I just get to look at it as we drive by--yes, there are "several" beaches around here--at least 4 or 5 or more named ones--but of course they are all really the same darn shoreline.

*pulls up a cushion*

Want some tea with that?

I'd love some tea - oolong, if you please?

I'm glad I stocked cushions here - they're so much better for long and deep chats than chairs are!

Mmmm definitely. I have some lovely jasmine tea here, if you like. With actual dried flowers and sencha!

Or if you prefer, here is your oolong:

mmm, looks delicious! One of my favorite teas is chamomile (which my hubby thinks is funny when he calls it "camel milk" ). I love it with a couple drops of honey in it--it smells so good and its very relaxing; has no caffeine.

No herbal teas for me, please. They hurt my throat, though I don't know why. I love Chamomile in my lotions and cleansers, though!

not any teas really ._. the smell is nice but the taste just isnt quite as good XD

give me soda any day XD
