Michigander. Bookkeeper by day; blogger by night. Some of my favorite things include: travel, photography, video games, sweater-weather, reading, and tea. The Harry Potter books are my favorite, and I can never have too much peppermint tea.

By Golly, Ollie!

Hello! My name is Jackie. I’m a thirty-something mother of a rambunctious toddler, who finds sanctuary from life’s most hectic moments in cups of tea.

By Golly, Ollie! is a lifestyle blog that features a mix of everything I love: tea, books, and geekery.

Q is for Queen of Hearts from @teaandabsinthe , a bright red berry and hibiscus blend that Alice’s antagonist would adore. #tea #homeisacupoftea #teatime #cupoftheday #teaoftheday #instatea #teastagram #teasofinstagram #teablogger #teadrinker #teaphotography #teaaddict #tealove #tealife #teagram #teaholic #ilovetea #teaoutside #icedtea #tisane #fandomtea #geeksteep #geekytea
It’s a Summer Sunday pretending to be a quiet, Autumn morning, so I steeped up the last of my 2019 Waffles from @white2tea . Shou and cool, overcast mornings are perfect together. #tea #homeisacupoftea #teatime #cupoftheday #teaoftheday #instatea #teastagram #teasofinstagram #teablogger #teadrinker #teaphotography #teaaddict #tealove #tealife #teagram #teaholic #ilovetea #gongfucha #gongfutea #gongfu #totoro #teapet #teaoutdoors #michiganblogger #dailyritual
P is also for Phoenix Oolong from @davidstea. Amber like clover honey with aromas of soft, floral lychee and perfectly ripe plums. Perfect for an afternoon with the windows open and playing with kinetic sand with the kiddo. #tea #homeisacupoftea #teatime #cupoftheday #teaoftheday #instatea #teastagram #teasofinstagram #teablogger #teadrinker #teaphotography #teaaddict #tealove #tealife #teagram #teaholic #ilovetea #gongfucha #gaiwan #gongfutea #teaoutside #oolong #davidstea #davidsteaaddict
Polished off the last of David’s Breakfast from @davidstea this morning. It tasted like cookies this morning, so is it any wonder that it was in my stash for less than a month? The only thing I regret is not getting more. Breakfast blends have been absent from my stash for a few months, so I don’t know why I didn’t load up when I had the chance. (I think I was optimistic of my self control, but folks…COOKIES 🍪.) #tea #homeisacupoftea #teatime #cupoftheday #teaoftheday #instatea #teastagram #teasofinstagram #teablogger #teadrinker #teaphotography #teaaddict #tealove #tealife #teagram #teaholic #ilovetea #davidstea #davidsteaaddict #breakfastblend #breakfasttea #antiqueteacup #vintageteacup #cupandsaucer #teacup
Started my day the right way— with a cup of Boba Milk Tea from @dessertbydeb . I finished up the bag today, and I miss it already. A rich Assam with vanilla and raisin? I can’t get enough of it! ⁣
Needed a little comfort and sunshine in my cup this morning. Breakfast-style black tea blends like Friday’s Afternoon from @fridaytea just do it for me, ya know? #tea #homeisacupoftea #teatime #instatea #teastagram #teasofinstagram #teablogger #teadrinker #teaphotography #teaaddict #tealove #tealife #teagram #teaholic #ilovetea #antiqueteacup #paragonteacup #cupandsaucer #vintageteacup #teaoutside #fridaytea #breakfasttea #breakfastblend #teacup #maketeahavezen
My @davidstea order arrived just in time for #matchamonday (hosted by @teaisawishblog ) and I’m confident this impulse buy was totally worth it 😆. First up is the Earl Grey Cream Matcha, and IT TASTES JUST LIKE TRIX CEREAL. I was so skeptical of an Earl Grey flavored matcha, but this was love at first sip.
Starting Monday off the right way by setting my intentions for the week and sipping an iced matcha latte in the backyard. (Also, that granola is BIRTHDAY CAKE GRANOLA, and Oliver and I are obsessed with it).

I was inspired by @matchathomas / @meandacuppatea to add some macerated strawberries to my Monday morning matcha. Now if I could just get my hands on some boba 🤔. Still, I’m kind of in love with this 😍.
