I have read Laura Childs' Tea Shop Mysteries, a set of light "who dunnits" that feature recipes and tea culture more than murder.

I do sun tea with Splenda and fresh lemon slices. Over time, I've noticed I can't drink caffeinated tea after 6pm. Ughh. I love iced tea but rarely drink it hot. Like Lipton's tea and Red Rose :o)Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040099513110890878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31176502.post-81379495601036583612008-02-16T21:10:00.000-05:002008-02-16T21:10:00.000-05:00Wonderful article, Ruth.

My parent...I don't ever remember not drinking tea. My parents used to take turns getting up first, making tea, then delivering tea on a tray to the rest of the family in the morning wake-up ritual. Until I left home, I was spoiled by being gently woken most mornings with a cup of tea brought to my night table. I make three or four pots of tea every day. I take milk, and it has to go into the cup before Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11421189774080229946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31176502.post-3959888678469088862008-02-15T12:00:00.000-05:002008-02-15T12:00:00.000-05:00Ahhh, tea ... yes it is good to get a good cuppa ....Ahhh, tea ... yes it is good to get a good cuppa ...
