Coconut Pouchong from Golden Moon Tea

This is so good cold brewed. I probably should have given it another 4-6 hours but I wanted it now (despite there being 2 other teas getting the cold treatment in the fridge).

I finally cancelled my internet and I really am glad. I flipped out at the woman because she told me the early termination was $180 rather than that the early termination is prorated from $180. And then she’s like well if you didn’t cut me off- no, you phrased that VERY poorly because what did you think I was gonna say to you when I have a month left of this horrible internet and you say $180. I own the modem now apparently so I think I’m going to go actually drop kick it now after threatening it so many times over the past 11 months.

Anyway yes, this tea. I think I love it this way more than any other way. Like drinking coconut macaroons.

I guess apparently I wouldn’t want to steep it any longer because it seems just slightly bitter. But the coconut, yum! It’s so creamy and I almost want to add just a little coconut milk to it…

This of course turned into a little coconut milk in the glass and more coconut milk on the counter and cabinets. Sigh. The sugar in the milk is taking away from the bitter notes. It reminds me a bit of grains too, I have noticed that every time I’ve had this tea but I couldn’t pinpoint what it was until now. Like sweetened corn flakes.

I will continue hoarding what remains of my little tin. This is a nice treat.

Also check this out, this one photographer decided my car was worthy of FOURTEEN pictures on Friday and this one rules: http://goo.gl/NEpaB I don’t know why I am so interested in this one, it all just has to do with the tires kicking up water. I’m weird.

I like the greenery in the background. :) Is it in Georgia where you live? Recently had a drive through Georgia, and I really enjoyed all the trees.

I live in Georgia, that was taken in Tennessee (my car is registered in TN still as my dad technically owns it), near the Smoky Mountains. I love driving through there because while it was wet like that it felt like being in a rain forest.

I always fail at taking pictures while I’m there, but this is another shot from a different road where it’s just like being surrounded by a forest: https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc6/6250_1128858710664_7203278_n.jpg Although I think it is actually in a national forest so makes sense haha

Oh and this is my favorite part of that same road, they call it rainbow falls: https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc6/6250_1128858750665_4989398_n.jpg

Oh pretty, thanks for sharing!
There’s still nothing like driving on Washington’s Mount Rainier forest roads.. ah can’t wait to get back there. Talk about rain forest :)

There’s where you need a sports car and no traffic.
