At the super cute supermarket in Victoria, fully stacked with local, organic stuff, I found a box of tea made of something called honeybush. Somehow I got the idea that it was produced locally and thought it would be nice to try.
Later, when I read the text on the box closer, it turned out that the actual honeybush grows in South Africa (of course, all good teas grow in South Africa) and that the tea was only packaged locally. By then, I had already tried it and really liked the soft, honey-y taste of it, so I didn’t mind the misunderstanding.
But, another thing that I found on the tea box was these short, cute messages written all around the edges of the box. Messages like:
make tea for a friend * recycle * jump in a puddle * ride your bike * throw a frisbee * hug someone * love & gratitude * sing aloud * do what you love * buy local * peace to all beings * abundance * honour mother earth muleh or recycle this box
Isn’t that just the cutest?
