Weekend TeaDay 8/14-15/10 Poll about polls.

BYOT! Enter TeaChat here, you never know what you may find!


Crazy topic I read on a forum about forums. Do you like forum polls? Please share if you think they are useful and helpful in generating discussions, etc. Otherwise, it is "open topic!"

Yes, I like them and feel they definitely serve a purpose on TeaChat

This Sunday's Breakfast at Brandon's is dedicated to Chip.

Pancakes with homemade blueberry syrup (a delightful gift!)

Tea is gift grade Keemun from Jing Tea Shop. If it isn't dark and strong, you found the wrong house.

Chip, you do a great job with the polls and managing TeaDay in general. I neglected to say that yesterday.

My standby Teas, MF Marco Polo and the Golden Lion Assam are what I've been drinking the last couple of days. I might venture a new Tea today. This opressive weather still has me down a bit, but my eye is doing great after the cataract surgery. :D

I've only *just* started following the TeaDay threads, but I have to say I thought the "what's brewing" poll on the LOST island was a riot. I didn't vote, since I"m coming in very late on all this, but I really enjoyed reading the options.

Looking forward to being a future participant! :-)

Pam

I'd say they serve a purpose. I generally like forum polls because the can generate lots of useful or plain entertaining conversation.

Today's cup so far has been Earl Grey. I'm thinking about some white silver needles in bit.

Thanks, Brandon, looks mighty appetizing. :P

Just jump right in, Pam! :idea: TD is a good place to let your hair down and get to know many members.

Good to see you CraftyMom!! :mrgreen:

Should be an interesting TD at a graduation picnic. But have tea will travel. Although it should not be too hot, but looks like rain.

Began the TD with first tasting of Warashina Supreme from O-Cha with SweeTea ... Gandalf and Precious passed through on their way to somewhere in Middle Earth.

2004 Changtai puerh today. I'm pretty fond of this cake, yummy. :D

Later will be either Sencha or some type of Oolong. Hmmmm....

TD continued with a 2005 Shui Xian that failed to impress at the rainy and cool graduation partay/pickynic.

Finishing up with a blend of kukicha and some shincha that does impress. :mrgreen:

We have a winner of the ShyRabbit Sake Set!!!

Brandon - gorgeous!
My sweetheart and I also enjoyed pancakes this morning.
With ours we began with yuuki tenkei Hana matcha, followed by puerh.

Most definitely! Too bad the OU Airport closed down.
Columbus it is!
