97

Making tea in a hurry before I change my mind again. I’m finally trying to get through what I’m behind on the dashboard and first Morgana had Kusmi’s Samovar and I thought, “Oh, I should have some of that too!”. And then I scrolled down a little more and Rijje had this infamous raspberry oolong and I thought, “Oh, I should have some of that too!” And… You get the pattern, right?

So I hurried up and made a cup of this before the confusion was complete.

The obligatory sniffing of leaves in near-ecstacy that this tea requires was a good chance to take a look at the amount of leaves. We are dangerously close to a decupboarding here. I’ll have to do something about that post-England, I think.

Yummmm nommy.

Whew 9! Days! Back! I probably ought to stop following some people and try to make it easier for myself to keep up. But I don’t want to stop following anybody. Maybe I ought to have a secondary account with the smaller following list. Angrboda Lite. Nah, it would just get confusing. I guess I’ll just have to do the unpleasant and go through my follow list. This is not working. (How did I avoid breaking my back on a ginormous follow list before I stopped trying to follow everybody????)

At least some of us aren’t drinking much tea because it’s hot outside?

This is terrible to admit, but I pretty much skip over reading anything that’s less than four lines long now unless:

a) It has either an unusually low or an unusually high rating,
b) the name of the tea catches my eye, or
c) the person writing it doesn’t usually do that.

I figure there’s not a whole slew of useful information about the flavor profile that can be packed into so small space unless those conditions are met anyway. This is probably not a failsafe policy, but it’s the only way I can keep up, and I have nowhere near as many people I’m following as you do!

I understand, I’m not following a lot of people, but I am compulsive about reading all the notes.
