1/28/08

I ordered tea for my sweetie in Vermont. An oolong sampler from Adagio. And the tea guide.

Separately, on the weekends I have been drinking the Irish Breakfast tea from Twinings, just the way they say to: one per person, and one for the pot. Teaspoons of tea. In fact, it became utilitarian, rather than an experience, like driking coffee. I miss my other loose teas.

I went to adagio to order more tea, and came up with $64 worth of tea! But I realized that I don't drink tea at work anymore, and so I don't need so much, but it didn't make sense to order the smaller amounts, either, because of how much smaller they are. I know tea keeps for a while, but still, it didn't make sense to me to buy it all at once, and since I eliminated buying smaller amounts, I ended up with nothing. It was mostly 4 ounces at a time, rather than 1 ounce.
