No green tea for me
But I have been listening to lots of Irish Music

Including The Green Fields of France

And The Green Fields of Athenry

Another favourite Irish song is The Nightingale by Susan McCann - but it has not yet found it's way on to Youtube
But Farewell My Green Valleys has

And of course speaking of Farewells - when teaguests leave you have to drink your farewell tea from a The Green Glass

Started the day with O-Cha's Sae Midori, doing an experiment comparing two cup types with results that took me by surprise. I love it when I learn something new.

Yes, definitely! I did drink black tea this afternoon, but just because I needed the (for me, psychosomatic) effect of some caffeine. I'm looking very forward to my green tea that's cooling off so as not to be too face-scaldy. Green did permeate other aspects of my day; I wore green earrings and ate a ton of veggies at dinner, which is usual, because I'm vegetarian, but still... :lol: :mrgreen:

Rose congou this afternoon; currently waiting on some Longjing to cool down.

The only teas I had today were green, those being a matcha and a sencha, all in all a good St. Patrick's day.

I finally got some green late in the day. Kotobuki matcha before supper and Kirameki shincha just a little while ago.

Absolutely ... it was an all green tea day! Began with Fuji the Ultimate from Zencha, next Kaboku from Ippodo, and lastly Musashi from O-Cha with the Mrs.

Green has always been my fave color, so I wore a green shirt and eyes for the occasion.
