Just ordered that along with their best matcha. I'm totally stoked!

I assume you mean the Yuuki Midori? I just received the Organic Yame Gyokuro which I have never tried a matcha from Yame. "I'm totally stoked!" :wink:

I will be doing a tasting with it, it is in cold storage, unopened ... it calls my name however. :lol:

I'm always drinking tea, so that makes it 16 hours a day. :lol:

Right now I'm cleaning up after an adolescent baoyan sheng session, one of my favs. But all I can think about is my new Kamjove kettle and yixing pot that just cleared customs this morning.

I'm allergic to lavender so I definitly don't think find it calming. It just stresses me because I get breathing problems. Five years ago I couldn't cope with roses either, but it's getting better and better. So happy to be able to drink jasmine tea and rose tea :D

Am trying to find the perfect dog for our family. Now hoping for a springer spaniel... he seems so nice... hope it will end with us having him here ! :?

Springer Spaniels are great family dogs, a little hyper, but super lovable, GREAT Choice! 8)

I had to mentally flip a nickle on this question. I think that I spend more than an hour a day with tea in some way, which is likely to drop when warmer weather finally comes around.

My last dog was as hyper as a dog can be, so I'm not worried :lol: Thanks for pepping me!
