Looking upon the dry leaves for the first time, I wondered, do you ever find satisfaction in looking at your dry tea leaves before they are forever changed by the addition of hot water?

Definitely YES, everytime I prepare tea

Not so much with Japanese greens but with most other teas I enjoy holding and looking at the tea.

I have a necklace I can wear under my shirt - and it opens - I'm thinking of putting a leaf or bud in there - and they won't know about it. I won't be able to take it out (pretty sure they'd freak - and understand from today's meeting that they follow the rules strictly - and there are cameras! -- but I'll be comforted knowing the tea is abreast :) ).
Cheers.
Seeker, that sounds like a plan to me. You'll be amazed at what a relaxation device it is!
