My husband brought me home some chamomile with limeflower. Delicious, and if I have a cup it's better than Valium.

My son bought me a canister of tea from Teavana in the mall. Way too expensive but it was sweet of him and the tea is really, really good.

All I can do
is just pour some tea for two
and speak my point of view
but it's not sane

All I can do
is read a book to stay awake
it rips my life away
but it's a great escape

Depends which country I'm in.

Here in the US the answer is a definite no - hot tea is piss weak and cold tea - seriously???

In the UK though - put a brew on, I'm parched.

What is this "tea" of which you speak?

Oh, yes....I remember now--tea is the drink that wishes it were coffee.

One of my attorneys brought me a box of these back from a business trip to China years ago. I had never seen them before, and thought they were the coolest things ever. (He was kind of like, "Mmkay. It's just tea, y'know." :lol: ) Now they're fairly common here, and you can even get clear glass teapots so you can see the flower "bloom".
