There are 12 Hagi winners, each will receive a piece of Hagi as promised. ... :D One problem, I only have 1 of these, so I will cut it up into 12 equal pieces.

Well, good news. I have not been fired for the Adagio/Teavana prank. :lol: So I celebrated earlier with Gyokuro Yame from Zencha!

I'd love a TeavAdagio. I have had no sleep for 2 days... babies out the wazoo here... so I am too exhausted to have a sense of humor.

In my cup.... White Darjeeling: Margaret's Hope 2009 FF from Tea Emporium.... mmmmm. Like a cross between FF darjeeling and white peony... almost has a slight honeydew melon flavor. It's a beautiful, fluffy gorgeous leaf blue in the can and bright green when brewed... with a gorgeous pale straw colored tea liquor... very light muscatel scent. Delicious.

I have to sleep, i am so fried.

Ok, you're the midwife, so I guess now we know the technical term for where babies come from! :lol:

Sarah, hopefully, you're already sleeping and won't see this till tomorrow!

Nighty night,

Well today was rainy again, I live in the Pacific Northwest so it rains more than anything here. Tea makes everything better though.

I tried out my Virgo blend that I got free with my order a while ago, I've just been too lazy to try it. It was actually pretty good, I think I might order it again.

I'm making some Market Spice right now, its from Pike Place Market in Seattle. Its a cinnamon orange tea, its super oily (if you forget to move it out of the plastic bag it comes in it will eat it :shock: ). Its really good though, its defiantly a unique tea, very strong.

Hope everyone had a good day!

If only this were true. Actually when I saw the aforementioned company's new "Perfect Tea Maker" I thought maybe Adagio DID buy them...

Looked awfully familiar....

Hope everyone came through April Fools unscathed.

For what its worth, the Perfect Teamaker is not a new offering... I bought my first one several years ago, long before I'd ever heard of Adagio. I think I still own 3 of them!

Thanks, Sarah. I stand corrected. I was just suddenly inundated with ads about it and hadn't seen it before. I guess there still isn't much new under the sun. :wink:
