@bram When you say “she did what few people did before” do you mean she inspired me to blog?

Our times are tempered with in the last weekend of the month

Which means we still have plenty of time to drink during one hour more.

Lucky them

Here we only switch for around four months, seems a bit silly to make that change for such a short period of time.

Also for @lazyliteratus. And I don’t know about @bram because I don’t know if he drinks anything other than tea?

Is there something else?
Sometimes cold/hot chocolate, cola or other soda. And too often I have to accept the bag …

Thanks @gingkoseto – I think @xavier and @bram would find this interesting too. Are you saying that (artificially) expensive tea makes the consumer believe the tea has got to be worth more and taste better?-
People seem to have the intuition (me include, though I’m often, but not always able to correct it) that price is based on honest markers. So better quality, more rare, harder to get/produce etc. If the market was honest this would usually be a justified reasoning. Unfortunately this is not always the case. I would expect that the placebo effect…[Read more]

i guess most price inflation in this country is not due to dishonest, but due to charging high service fee, or making package more expensive than fee, or having high operational cost due to advertisement costs. a $20 tea could easily be honestly worth $100 if the shop were opened at the 5th ave. in NYC, and the owner would go bankruptcy if they…[Read more]

Thanks for the idea @bram

But the water won’t be hot enough to steep the leaves later then?! How about one flavored tea and one unflavored tea, to suit both palates. (PS: I thought your colleagues don’t drink tea?)
-
Some of them do (I am slowly attracting them to the leaf side) and pre warmed Thermos are good for keeping water hot.
I first did the black teas and then the green I had.

Asking all – but our old timers in particular – to not forget the updates here on Tea Trade. I just sorted by “Updates” in the stream and found just my own 6 or 7 before one from @Bram. Love hearing from you all, […]

@bram I know but this is not the way I see it or the way it should be.
And in the end, you cannot really be one person at work and then a completely different one home (from an ethics point of view). -

@bram Somebody else had this idea too! Funny, had never seen anything quite like this but now suddenly they’re two.

Sometimes I do miss a blog post, either because it got really busy here, or because I got really busy on the home front. I found @bram‘s post by sorting the activity stream by “blog posts.” Do you do that too? You can sort by blog post, comment, updates etc. I definitely recommend especially if you’re trying to catch up, or are looking for a…[Read more]

@bram They were interesting, I tried to pin them but I couldn’t. Are they only on fb or are there pics anywhere else I could pin and link to? Do you know the creator of those tea(pot) lamps?

She is a distant friend I meet a few times a year and she is an fb friend. She is quite new at promoting her work, so she still has some way to go.

Ha ha. You could of course join in @bram. I envision a green all-in-one spandex outfit with Tea Trade in large letters across the chest.
