Tea

[annuin]

Mmm tea. Ordered some new tea from Stash today. The Holiday Chai that was now on clearance, some Rooibos (redbush) which I haven't had in ages. The rooibos that Pitr tried sending me never arrived >_< and seeing as they now have teabags of it at Stash I figured I'd try there. And also some double bergamot earl grey... I can't wait to give that a try.

And that's pretty much the most exciting thing on this unrelentingly cold day. Reading some Kathe Koja (Strange Angels) and playing a little Warcraft 3: FT, and drinking tea.

You know, I'm really getting into tea at the moment. I started as a "keep myself relaxed at work without cigarettes" thing, and now I'm drinking tea almost constantly at work because of this asthma business. (Lucky I quit smoking for New Years, huh?)

I don't know much about tea yet... for convenience I'm drinking Twinings teas at the moment, and I've discovered that I LOVE Prince of Wales, and Orange Pekoe. There are teas that I will still drink with milk (like English or Irish breakfast) but I'm getting into appreciating tea without milk.

Where should I go to find good, real (ie, not in a cardboard box in the supermarket) teas? I know you lived in Sydney, not Brisbane, so I'm asking in more general terms, not "oh, there's this FABULOUS little shop round the corner of..." *grin*

Or, alternatively, are there blends you really like you think I should try?

=)

...tea is my new obsession. One of them, anyway...

What a fab way of spending a harsh winter's day. I'm doing the same cept with coffee, not as nice as tea I know, but more of a nessasity!
