Adagio's Booked.

by chris » Sep 21st, '05, 12:51

I'm personally proud to annouce Adagio's newest product, a new book of tea for beginners (and the rest of us) aptly called A Guide to Tea. As the writer, I'd be happy to answer any posts about the book, etc. You can see an excerpt of it here:

http://www.adagio.com/pages/book.html

For now, we're selling it as an email-only promotion (check your inbox, Adagio subscribers!), but it'll hit the shelves for the general public soon!

Best,

Chris

I picked the most entertaining option. I am interested to read it, though. ;)

agreed.... the liver was recently rated "the most useless organ in the human body" by the American Society of Folks Who Know Nothing About the Human Body (or ASFWKNAHB, as i oft refer to them).

that looks like a really neato project. if only the hurricane wouldn't delay shipping for some abominable time and ruin the tea :roll: ...booo...that would make a really nice gift for some of my friends and family...and uhhh me too
:wink:

great idea and kudos!

and i am busy pickling my liver for future use...so i don't think they'd take it. i opted for an evening with the author :D

LoL! That's good to know!

I may have chosen a date with the author (cos writers are sexy) but my boyfriend (also a writer) might object... ;) Besides, when there's this much competition, I know when to stop trying heehee...

In my fantasies, it involves both Venus Flytrap* and Dr. Johnny Fever of WKRP.
