Tea-riffic!
Yes, they are.
"Herbal" tea is not, by definition, "tea".
This is why we can't have nice things.
If I had those cups they would be categorized with my "good" china. So the kids wouldn't break them.
Exactly. And only special people could drink from them!

2 sugars, please
Don't get me started on herbal tea, though - its for the birds!
Ha - why are you getting snobby about PG Tips?
It's on par with McDonalds coffee.

I just want to taste Imperial Blend because I've read it's the strongest tea. And I LOVE strong tea.
I accept no substitutes :



Yup.

AHHHHHH Irina!! Do you know where that set is from? I need it in my life. Everyone I know keeps buying me owl related things so I figure I can be the crazy person with too much owl stuff.

I liked the blue set you found Tuffy.
Whatever Whore!
I live to serve.

ooh, my kind of thread. I think I have about 9 types of tea in the kitchen at the moment.
Currently drinking:

"Sensual infuser pod"
I know it's just a slightly different looking bag, but yeah, I want that.
I have had tea from an infuser pod. I can't confirm the sensual, however.

It looks like it's made of lingerie lace. Sensual.
I made homemade chai once. It wasn't strong enough. But it was good.
I put two teabags in my mug today - an Earl Grey and a Ceylon, both cheap varieties. It tastes good but smells like coffee dregs. I wouldn't really drink it if it weren't hot.

owl, I had ^ these cute earrings but I misplaced them over christmas break :c
I was going to go to the tea room today only to find out IT'S CLOSED. I am so very upset.
“if you want to be a bird,” you said once, “with colorful plumage and buoyant trills, you must also be ready for hollow bones."
and by closed I mean shut down for good. I don't know why :ccccccccccc

I read today that green tea has caffeine in it. I didn't know that. For some reason I thought it was caffeine free.
well, close.. it is some kind of silk or something. they do feel rather nice when you pull them out of the tin.
I've found that TJ Maxx is actually a pretty good place to buy nice tea for cheap, (there's one around the corner from where I work, and I get bored at lunchtime) they usually have a bunch in the gourmet food section, I got a box of Camomile Vanilla blend teabags for about $3.
also, BOO to Cammie's teahouse closing down.
you looked at the Bot thing.

hehe
THAT.
Is.
Horrible.
This is why we can't have nice things.
have to admit, it's really not a face I want to see with my morning cuppa
Well just pretend you're blind.
nah I think I'd just use it for afternoon tea. I'd be ready for it by then.

I also tried white tea recently and loved it. This is strange because I'm totally a black tea person and I love any strong tea, and the white ones are usually the softest.
I just discovered tea with lemon and honey really does help with a soar throat.
So... Exciting life. Happy throat.
Yo man! Next time, I kick your ass! That'll be that!
I love that drawing, Irina 
I got an amazing lil tea thermos for my bday. I love it.

I also thought I commented on the drawing. Anyway I really liked that post Irina.
I like the thermos. Can you also make tea in it or does it just look like it?
yeah you can make tea in it.
so cool, Jaz! I've seen those things before, and thought about getting one.. is it good? does it stay hot?
Yeah, it works really well. I spilled it twice today though cuz I'm clumsy like that.
hehe, i probably would too. maybe i'll get one for work.
I bought two new teas today, until my dad returns from England with lots of bagged tea.
Moonlight: black tea, raisins, orange, coconut, lemon peel, elder flowers, sunflower petals, peony petals, anise, peach flavour and rum.
East Frisian Leaf Blend: leaf blend from East Friesland, Assam leaves.
I'll try them both later.
lotta stuff in that first one, I'm interested to hear what it actually tastes like





Those skeleton cups are fantastic.
