drank Green Tea with Earl Grey by Ahmad Tea
1719 tasting notes

Yeah, yeah, I know, that’s three days in a row. I promise to move on to something else soon. This morning I was forced to get dressed and go out the door to yard sale. Any one want to guess how much I didn’t want to do that? It would be ok if occasionally there was a nice guitar or tea kettle – but there never is. I stalled the inevitable for a few moments while I made a travel mug of this and grabbed a bagel. Out of a ceramic travel mug this is so satisfyingly delicious today. It can turn bitter (like most Ahmad teas) if you over heat or over steep but I’m what you call an expert (stolen line from Mythbusters). It tastes slightly roasted out of the travel mug and I do love the smell of bergamot in the morning.

I would give my right arm and $1.75 to spend a morning playing at yard sales :) (That’s a buck more than I paid for my three Ahmad tins.)

Well sure, you found tea. All I saw was clothes and knickknacks.

And what’s wrong with that?

Women. Oops not very PC of me ;)

Indeed. The clothes and whatnots are usually left because the men come to get the scrap tools and half-working appliances before the ladies get there. You should’ve left earlier.

Hey, I resemble that remark. I did almost come home with a cube frig for the man cave. It had ice in it by the way and the door closed all the way. :)

LOL! Well, I went to an estate sale and got a CD of the rat pack for youngest. She is a big fan of forties music. I am probably going back tomorrow to go a couple of things for half price, one item being a small serving piece for my china astern that we use every week for tea party. It will be $2.50 tomorrow! Tiny, but it will be great for holding Samwise’s cream puffs. (He gets two treats every week at tea party.)
