276 Days of Tea: Conclusion of the 2020 Tea New Year's Resolution

I started a New Year's Resolution at the start of 2020. Doesn't it seem like 2020 had lasted like 19 years???? Anyway, I wanted to clear out my pantry and make room. I had a lot of tea. I decided to start using them up! I decided I would try a different tea each day without duplication to get through it. 

After time, I went through my tea stash, but I was really enjoying having a new cup of tea each day. So, I bought more (kinda defeated the purpose, but it brought me a little joy each day). I also reached out to some tea companies to see if they'd like to send me some samples to try and I accumulated lots of new ones and have discovered many tea companies I never ever heard of. It's been excitiing. 

I have slacked a little along the way and skipped some days, but was still not far off target for trying 365 new teas in 2020. Then a bout of COVID has had me down, so there wasn't a lot of tea tasting after October. I did make it to 276 teas, thought. How many people have new year's resolutions that last until the end of the year? It wasn't a difficult one, though - it's not like my resolution was to lose a bunch of weight or start running several miles a day. Drinking tea isn't hard. I had fun with it. I'll kinda miss the routine, but will keep seeking out new yummy teas and sharing them with followers on social media and maybe even on the blog. 

Scroll down if you want to see the full list. Somewhere along the line in cutting and pasting, it converted from list form to paragraph form, which I don't like, but at least it's all there. Some of my favorites are in bold. Blessings and good wishes to you as we move on into another year. As always, keep spreading that foodie love.
