Chip, is your interest in eating them or as a design element

I'll try to get some good shots of them when they bloom. Last year they were beautiful for a couple of days, then we got a windstorm and it blew most of the flowers off! If you like them for eating, I'll try to dry some this year and send them to you - there's nothing like authentic Oregon Cherries!
Definitely tasting first and foremost. Definitely like the entire cherry aesthetics as well. There used to be hillside after hillside of cherry groves here, all developments now.
Each year, I follow the cherry harvests as they start in northern CA, moving up the coast, then east, lastly local harvests. I definitely love cherries! A Bing with a crunch or a MT Rainier ultimate sweetness.
And cherry pie, oh my ... : P
blah blah blah SENCHA blah blah blah!!!

Training dogs to herd livestock... sheep, ducks, cattle. If you've ever seen the movie "Babe" with the sheep-herding pig or the British TV series "One Man and His Dog," that's it.
thanks- makes sense- for some reason I just drew a blank when I read that.

I had filled mine in when I joined TC, could be time for an update

Think I need to add that I really enjoy reading horror and that Stephen King is one of my faves! {better check, maybe I did that already!} Also like Neil Gaiman.
Thanks
Chip for these last few polls, they have been fun, interesting and yes, it is nice to know more about my fellow TeaChatters.
Just wish more would have been involved today as interests other than tea are well,
interesting
Nice photos everyone!
Hope it was a nice Easter for those who celebrated.

Have a FAB TeaDay Everyone!

Glad you're not hiding anymore brad4419! Yeah, reading is fun...
And I agree it is enjoyable to see the interests of the other TeaChatters, makes us more like a community. Just wish as stated before that more members would have posted here so that we could get to know them better too! Hope to see you around our forum everyday

And let us know what's in your cup too!

Sorry for the late post, but cool poll idea.. "tea and meditation". if I could sit and drink tea all day...

I guess I should add "music" though. I mostly play guitar -- any kind of music as long as it's with other people. As far as listening, I'm into Phish, metal (especially progressive, but really depends on the band), and.. too much other stuff to list, but those are the big ones.
