I have no idea what I had to drink for tea this morning. So I've figured out that too strong of a tea makes for cloudy tea. I wish I could figure that out. Maybe get a scale instead of trying to eyeball the amount that goes into the infuser that I hate so much.
Over the weekend I had lots of cafe con leche. My kitchen is a disaster...but I won't go into that right now. It's just easier to microwave the water and scoop dried coffee-milk into a cup, and add sugar. It makes me feel full, though. Sometimes too full. Not a pleasant feeling.

I didn't drink tea yesterday. I had coffee at Cracker Barrel. I love that stuff. I made a darjeeling last night for Amanda, though.
Meanwhile, today, I've got Darjeeling #22. It's pretty good today! I got it right.
I have a thought about tea vs. coffee. On my way into work today, I'm thinking, Cafe con leche. That is wonderful! But it's heavier, and not 'clean' like tea is. Not sure how to describe it. Tea is cleansing, I think. And it's a good compliment to the oatmeal I eat most mornings for breakfast. It all feels clean...yet satisfying. I guess with cafe con leche I can feel the fat in the milk, or the creamer...coffee does have a body and complexity not found in tea, at least, not in the same way.
