Although the Current Unpleasantness has not put a stop to my workweek routine, and although my thin little slice of extroversion is acutely missing my church family, quiet Sunday mornings in the back yard have been an unexpected blessing.
While I was enjoying a few shiny moments of sunrise before it ducked back behind some clouds, I was also enjoying a cup of what is going to have to be a mystery until Eelong, the kind donor, sets me straight. The Sharpie had rubbed off the baggie, which (don’t laugh) could have said “Heicha 2018” or “Hojicha 2018,” but I’m not sure.
What I think I was sipping was a smoky and roasted green tea, which I thoroughly enjoyed, even though I’m not much of a lapsang fan. It had a nice coppery bronze color and led with the savory green flavor with a little campfire smoke in the background.
Baxter, our black cat with a white bow tie and a dumb-lovable personality like Rocky Balboa, jumped up beside me, and sniffed it with me.

Oh! That was a lightly smoked heicha from Yunnan Sourcing. I think the 2018 Cha Yu Lin “Liu Bu Xi Village” Tian Jian Basket Tea. Hope you and Baxter enjoyed it. :)
I really did. New things are good for the synapses! You’d like Baxter. A few days ago, I had a tumbler of milk outside next to me unattended—he nearly got his head stuck in the glass trying to drink like a people.
