My mom used to work in your industry many many years ago, the stories she would tell where very much like the incidents you describe, although microwaves were not invented then. It amazes me and leads me to […]

@xavier, I think we are all trying to get the answer to this question. We have so many “closet” tea drinkers as well as many who are in denial about drinking tea, although they do drink it. I would ask you about […]

Sometimes it’s just too long to note,

The things we see and where we go.

To share the moments, emotions of joy,

To rush to place a post for you,

I will show […]

Not sure why? When I read this post what came to mind was the poem “Charge of the light brigade” I haven’t thought about this since grammar school!
It could be that your next batch of this tea might result in 600 cups.

Xavier, Thank you for always reading and commenting on my posts. Based on the aisle space given to tea at this market, I would say they have a strong tea drinking community. The teas are available for consumer […]

Hi Bram; I just saw your question sorry for the late reply. I am not a specialist I can only reply based on the flavor profiles I have detected from drinking some of these early offerings. Overall I think it is […]

There are not too many people I know, although there are a few of my tea friends, that find mega stores fun.

Well, on our trip to Seattle last weekend, Darlene and I found one that became our home away from […]

Not really Xavier, and judging by the conversations the squash is still on the vine.

Well, as the saying goes “The best laid plans…” as it was my foremost intention to be present at this festive fall, tea filled gathering.

As I have mentioned in previous posts my link to gardening and plant cultivation began with the influence of my dad.

He came to this country as a migrant farmer and throughout his life farming and food […]

Enjoyed this guest post and brings to mind I will shortly be that stranger in a strange town hopefully to connect with Geoff and follow him around tasting the most unusual teas. It will be very interesting as I […]

When someone asks me to do a guest blog I check my schedule. Many days I just cannot get to my own blog post (as you all have noticed recently).

When someone offers to do a guest post for me, I may jump at the […]

As you know my tea from Greg did not make it home with me, so bummed. I also have resorted to making thermos tea lately (for my own consumption) so busy. Looking forward to a day when I can just sit and enjoy.

I hear there will be several sequels in the future.
