Confound it, Tuesday Morning outlet! We went in for one thing and came out with … several … including this tasty little surprise. It appears to be a blend of green tea and authentic milk oolong, with a little flavor. Even though it isn’t a straight-up milk oolong, it was very upscale and toothsome. Juicy Fruit gum with a little vanilla. A nice afternooner.
Somebody asked me once when I became a tea junkie; I think it dates back to college when I needed caffeine for a 7 a.m. class but chose not to do coffee. My favorite teapot is a medium-sized Brown Betty given to me by my Mema; the painted flowers are chipping off, but the size and feel is perfect. I rejoice when I get a morning to brew a pot of loose tea starting with a kettle; not a bag and a hot pot.
