What I Hate About Tea...

Ha! You thought enough had been made about my distaste for tea, but noooooo! I can beat a dead horse with the best of them!
  1. Taste
  2. Color
  3. Smell
  4. There is no "point" to it
  5. What are you gonna do with that soggy bag when you're done?
  6. It just makes me pee
  7. I refuse to pay good money for hot water with negligible benefits
  8. I don't "get it" - what's all the fuss?
  9. It's not coffee
  10. It's so tea-like!

I always liked the idea of tea, but didn't have much use for it either until I met my British friend who taught me how wonderful a properly made cup of tea can be. It truly is the difference between a crappy cup of coffee at a Quickie Mart and a truly good one you make at home.

There is NOTHING FUNNIER than beating a dead horse!

Funny, I'm reading this while boiling some water for a nice cuppa. Jasmine flowers, subtle, elegant, sleek, soft, purifying, cleansing, fragrant. They are tiny little pearls that unwind in such a delicate and surprising way that they don't require a bag for confinement and disposal, they just lay at the bottom of the pot, giving, giving, giving...six pots from one handful. Love tea. LOVE TEA. And frankly, my tea loves me!

Meet you at the Tao of Tea, I'll turn you life around!!!

Carrie,

Wanna meet me in LA? I'm here now. I'll take you to afternoon tea at The Hotel Bel Air. Lovely! Tea tastes better with champage than coffee.

xo,
Jenny
