I'm running out of tea from Adagio...I'll have to order more. The other day when I had that tea I felt overall much better, rather than simply hyped up on caffeine. I wasn't jittery, or anything else...I was just "up".

Meanwhile, I can't believe I haven't written here for a while. I need to have some of the same teas for here at home, and at work. I miss them when I'm at home. I have the very low quality Darjeeling and Nilgiri from the Soulard market, and I don't like drinking it. Maybe I'll buy some of the Nilgiri from Adagio, if they sell it, and see how it tastes.

I've gone through most of the tea that I bought in about a month. $15/month for tea. Youch! I still have the Darjeeling #22 in the greatest quantity...I'm not real impressed by that one. So I've waited until I'm out of all of the other tea...

Thanksgiving day. Normally I drink my tea at work, as part of my 'getting started for the day' ritual. Today I'm home, drinking tea made in my teapot. Organic Nilgiri. I got it in the Soulard Farmers' Market in St. Louis is July. I don't remember the name of the shop, but they have all kinds of coffees and teas and spices, and a bunch of other stuff. It's a very Old World kind of place in the New World.

The tea itself is also unremarkable. I guess I'll have to do some research to find out why people seem to like this tea. I've seen a few people sing its praises in their blogs, but I don't get it. It just doesn't thrill me.
