that was the idea of the tea masters wife and as he did it she exclaimed " that’s me that was my idea i did that" to the joy of all watching.

it was done on the street and as the whacks continued a crowd developed and many were introduced to pu in a manner that hardly anyone sees.

it was awesome
worth the 100$ right there :lol:

I'll need your address, a ski mask, and a crowbar.

Beautiful pics. Thanks for sharing.

thanks guys :D
no need for a mask or crow bar :roll:

all of the tea i have i would part with for a good story that i can say i was involved with.

i think tea is and should be used :arrow:

in a way to bring people together and teach that they are more the same than different.

if some one in a mask came all that way to use a crow bar to get tea then well i don’t know anyone who has had that happen with or with out a ski mask. not that there is any shortage of them around here. :roll:

Sounds like it would be a good story.

funny what some would do for tea :lol:

Well, I can't stop thinking about this melon, even if it looks smaller than I imagined it would be.

Maybe I'll get one, fill the Jacuzzi with boiling water, and drop it in.

Pu-ool party! Bring your own cup. How many infusions do you think we could get out of that?

Salsero, it's just going to be one infusion unless we can get one big Gongdaobei!

Maybe teacups should be something like this

In this picture, it looks larger. It's really beautiful. I would have to buy two of them- it's so pretty, I couldn't bring myself to break it open unless I had a second, untouched melon for display.
