Reichenbach Recovery from Custom-Adagio Teas

Michelle drank Reichenbach Recovery by Custom-Adagio Teas

Right. So. I officially hate the “Undo” button on my tablet keyboard. Also, I REALLY miss having an actual keyboard. Something about typing essays on a piece of glass leaves a lot to be desired. I haven’t hit that button in almost the whole year I’ve owned this tablet, and I’ve hit it three times while typing this review.

So. I’m SO flat that Sherlock season 2 is currently airing in the US. I’m currently without a computer, stuck using this tablet, and while it’s a cool toy, it’s not really meant for typing essays on. It also means that I can’t watch anything stored on my computer that isn’t in in iTunes. I watched Reichenbach when it aired on PBS earlier this evening, and of COURSE my dad comes in at the MOST dramatic moment and talks / theorizes all the way through. Not that he’s ever seen the show before! Fortunately, it’s airing again right after… Sooo… Three hour Sherlock marathon. Right.

TEA.

I have to admit, I’m not actually drinking this tea. BUT. I have the components and I know the ratios so I’ve blended up an approximation of it, using Earl Grey Cream from DAVIDs instead of the Earl Grey Bravo. It really is good. It’s warm and full-bodied, nutty in just the right places and the caramel gives it a sort of sweetness that flows over it without overpowering it. Next time I order from Adagio, I’m definitely adding some of this.

God, Benedict Cumberbatch just looks like a little boy and I just want to hug him.

What’s worse (or maybe not) is that I fell asleep halfway through, and woke up just to see the last 20 minutes. I HATE when that happens. So, I know how it ends, but not why it ends the way it does. ://

Noooo! I watched it twice and I have to admit… Still not entirely sure why it ends the way it does! Although I tend to miss a lot of minor details,especially when I’m not paying full attention.

Now I have to watch it again…….I’m sure they’ll replay it sometime.

I think Masterpiece Theater has really produced some good series and mysteries the last couple years.

Long typing sessions on my tablet kind of get annoying too. Browsing the web, buying stuff, reading news… oh man, these things are brilliant. But like nose to the grindstone work? Sheesh. Typing real words is bad enough, I can’t imagine coding or something like that.

@Scott – I LOVE PBS. That and BBC America. The only shows I watch regularly are BBC, but PBS’s Great Performances are some of my favorites to put on in the background while I’m drawing or something like that!
@Dylan – basically. I have no idea where my laptop charger is. So I’m sort of grateful for the tablet and sort of thinking that if I didn’t have one, I’d probably have found the charger by now… Haha, I’m just lazy,
