Tea?

I tried it and liked it but I need to try others. I'm sure there's better out there. Thanks for the advice CC. On a side note, "new shit comin' to life?" Must of been havin' some sort of mental fart there.

My special lady and I will be drinking drinking all the teas on our self...it may take years, but I hate throwing anything away. I may pick up another if it catches my eye, but we will trim our tea self down to the all around simple and pleasing basic Lipton tea but I do want to keep a high quality Lemongrass on hand for evenings when I feel like something different/special....that and the oolong and Japanese Green tea....especially if we get guests who are not coffee drinkers.
I think the real trick is being able to find someone who been around for awhile and offers a high quality leaf/blend...the packaging may be of some help...but may not. I would think if really know their tea and are offering a high quality leaf/blend....they would try and show it off with how they package it.
I got surprised by the lemongrass and how much I like it....completely different taste to anything else on the self.

I fucking love tea

And since I'm only 16 years old, I can't really drink white russians
My favorite tea to relax with is a big cup of earl grey, with some milk and sugar

I don't ( cant stomach) alcohol and now drink TONS of tea as well. I have everything from 'Holy Basil' to organic catnip blends( very mellowing!) to 'horny goat weed' tea, and of course i start the days with lots of green tea blends and i love earl grey and a little milk( well almond milk) too!
i could talk tea all day long.

As we are on the subject of Tea:

The Tea Calendar

I thought it looked particularly interesting.

Whoa. Yeah. That's a very interesting idea. I want one of those things. Even overlooking the challenge of pressing tea into a 1mm thin square that holds its flavor before dissolving in water, the potential for the flavor of each page to either dissipate or "bleed" over onto the next seems a potent challenge. Very, very cool though.
