Matcha, matcha girl, you're gonna be a matcha girl!

When's the new Matcha-licious scent coming out?
Were you semi-quoting Kramer on purpose? All I can think of is Kramer in Seinfeld: "You're [Jerry's] gonna be a cable boy, cable boy, a cable boy!" From one of the earlier seasons where Jerry gets illegal cable installed after Kramer urges him.

It's a modified "Macho Man" lyric by the Village People, no?

That's fine. Hopefully you're not showing your taste in music!

I, too, ordered the green starter kit from Den's, per recommendation from Cinnamon Kitty. I'm waiting for it to arrive. Adagio has spoiled me, as living in NJ means quick service from them...! :P

(throwing hands up in the air) Well, there goes my desire to try the much chatted about matcha! I would not be able to drink it without the song "Macho Man" stuck in my head. :lol:

Oh, the Village People work too. :) Mine's definitely more obscure.

I want my Den's start pack to arrive! It shipped last Thursday but it has to find its way from CA to Montreal.

Welcome to the wonderful and lovely domain of Japanese Green! Bwahahahaha!

Just so you know the color of the liquor really does vary from tea to tea. Some brew a shockingly bright green and others an almost yellow color. Nonetheless welcome to the land of sencha!

Thanks Pentox!! Now if I can just be PATIENT - Which I am NOT!!!
My order was on my very doorstep today but I was not here to sign for it! Oy!
And it is all kind of registerd and checked boxes on the USPS slip. I am going to have to sign in person so that means a delay untill SATURDAY!! That is like FOREVER away!

Victoria is not slipping into the side of the pool slowly, she is jumping off the high dive.

That is O-Cha that makes it so hard to get your matcha from the nice UPS guy? And, oy, you know those Japanese teas don't keep for very long. Maybe you could stop by UPS tomorrow night and pick it up. Might go bad by Saturday.

HA!!!! Thanks to Sal's kidding - a seed was planted. Why not be totally late for work, stop by the post office and pick up my O-cha order on the way to work? What are they gonna do fire me? What's more important tea, or work?

The scoop on my first matcha and pics of my new bowl tomorrow!
Yay!
