Tea Porn

Oh I LOVE tea....

Never knew tea could be so exciting....

(The special romantic little cups, chatting it up with the girls.... How fun!!!!):heart::heart::heart:
 
I need tea advice

I drink a lot of tea (I think:confused:). Two leaded cups in the a.m. and one unleaded in the p.m. to wind down. I drink packets but I went on a cleanse so I was using the ball thingy with loose leaf. Now I wanna get into more loose leaf. I like the English Black Morning or what-the-fuck-ever it's called and some vanilla hinted stuff as well as some but not strong fruity stuff.

What and where can I buy decent loose leaf for a good price in semi-bulk?

I woouldn't do that if I were you. Doesn't go well with your prostate problem.
 
I'd like to think it's because she's giving fierce consideration to mine. I can't offer her a twinned house and regular access to Mr Depp, like Tim Burton. On the other hand, my hair is slightly less unruly than his, and I do make lovely tea. I have some hopes.

You've never really given me a reason to have you offed, but you're starting to push it.

She's moin.
 
“You have filled my tea with lumps of sugar, and though I asked most distinctly for bread and butter, you have given me cake. I am known for the gentleness of my disposition, and the extraordinary sweetness of my nature, but I warn you, Miss Cardew, you may go too far.”

― Oscar Wilde, The Importance of Being Earnest

"I like my tea after sex."

~ Oscar Wilde

"There are those who love to get dirty and fix things. They drink coffee at dawn, beer after work."

"And those who stay clean, just appreciate things. At breakfast they have milk and juice at night."

"There are those who do both, they drink tea."


~ Gary Snyder

"As long as it is hot, wet and goes down the right way, its fine with me."

~ Sarah Fergerson, The Duchess of York

"A hardened and shameless tea drinker, who has for twenty years with tea amuses the evening, with tea solaces the midnight, and with tea welcomes the evening."

~ Dr. Samuel Johnson on himself.
 
Well fuck you, you non-helpful, d-bag tealitists.

Sheesh. Stop pouting. :rolleyes: I didn't reply because anything I say wouldn't be much help. I don't know where you live or what teahouses are nearby. I'm lucky because one of the higher end grocery stores carries my favorite tea. You should be able to order online too, but I prefer to smell the tea I buy so I don't do that.
:kiss:

Thank you. :)
I got a Trader Joe's basically next door so I should go there first but I'm an Amazon addict, looking for something there.

My goodness.

Teavana should have everything you need and more. But, as you have a TJs basically next door, you might walk next door and see what they have that you find interesting. The black tea that you mentioned is a standard everywhere. Finding a good tea is a lot like finding a good wine or good coffee or good cheese; you need to experiment and find what you like. What some people like, you may not. TJs has some very nice Irish breakfast teas. You could start there.

Go do some research and report back!

Thank you! I was joking, just thought I was being clever with the "tealitists" crack.

Irish Breakfast sounds like a good start - me being Irish and all.
 
"Tealitists" shows a lot of promise.

Let us know what you think of the TJ Irish breakfast.

Irish Breakfast tea has a permanent spot on my countertop :)

I like "tealitists." :cool:
