Tea

If I drink tea it is always Earl Gray. Most times it's iced for me, Earl Gray or plain old Chinese tea, black pekoe.

Lady Gray is nice when Earl Gray is out and when I feel moody, jasmine.

No milk or sugar in any of them! Sometimes if I don't feel good, a drop of lemon or honey but that's rare. Then I take some of Matt's remedy tea and go into a coma.

I can't abide Earl Grey- Mark has found Lady Grey now, a bit more acceptable, black only.

Iced Tea! I forgot I like that. Matt's tea- need to try that

Iced Tea is incredible. I prefer the brand, "Luzianne".

Gunnen, try tossing a sprig of fresh mint in your iced tea.

Mark makes iced tea from a recipe the Housekeeper at Horizons in Bermuda made for the staff on the afternoon shift. Claire is my hero

The tea I am stuck on is Alwazah. I brought a bunch back from the Middle East, opened it and vacuum sealed it all into bags. Its a good Ceylon tea, and I like Cardamom.

Some of you may appreciate this. It was deisgned for local backpackers and I have one and I love it:

That is the travel one and its great to have at school. They have others with the same concept. Plus, the steel doesn't stain, and with this one in particular, you can put extra grounds or for us, tea leaves in the bottom of the mug! All you need is hot water boiled on the travel or found at a gas station.

One of these has followed me all over Hell's creation in the Army. Tough as fucking nails and doesn't leak, period:

The steel can stain but there is a solution if it does - Oxyclean. Makes that thing look brand new. Just throw a spoonful in the bottom, fill with scalding hot water and let it sit a couple hours. Wash and it's going to sparkle! I use it to clean all my steel pots and especially coffee pots and their parts.

So far so good with this thing. It's made with some sort of restaurant steel.

Yea, cannot avail myself of this magical thing like I usually do when I am in school all day:

Boils water quickly and gets tea going fast.

So I must use hot water at the coffee/library/bookstore place at the school and that mug to get tea going. It's very convenient believe it or not.

What prevents you from using it?
