Happy Easter and Passover
to everyone who is celebrating!
Welcome to TeaDay. Please drop in and share your tea with us throughout the day ... and see what others are drinking.
Yesterday we discussed changes in tea consumption over the weekends. You can still vote and discuss yesterday's topic.
Today's TeaPoll and discussion topic was born on the IM with Dresden. Concept TeaCar was unveiled including The Kar Kettle, EnviroWaterMaker, TeaFridge, GPS integrated with insta read digital scale/thermometer/timer, Magic Holdem mobile floating voice command TeaTray with Magic Pour(tea)Pot/integrated cups, Robo Wet/Dry VacMan. Are you buying???
Be sure to discuss your special request options.
I am looking forward to sharing this TeaDay with everyone. Bottoms up.

Happy Easter everyone!
I wanna wait for the Hummer sized version. No sense in going "green" yet.

What is the gas milage?
Happy Easter!
We had a nice surprise in the yard this morning. As we watched the deer and squirrels do there usual raiding of our bird feeder a grouse just popped out from under our boat and walk right through the front yard and then back into the forest. We haven't ever seen a grouse around where we live and they arn't very common in Ohio. We think he kidnapped the easter bunny in an attempt to become the easter grouse.

~ !! Happy Easter !! ~
No thanks on the TeaCar, I'd rather brew at
home ... where it's safe.
In my cup this morning a FF Darjeeling from the
Lochan tasting, this one from the Phuguri Estate.
Hope you all have a great Easter Sunday, celebrating
with family and friends.

Happy Easter and Passover!!
The TeaCar sounds really cool, but I don't drive, so I'll just stick with the thermos. Now, a house or apartment built to optimize brewing of tea, on the other hand... I'd totally be there.
Looseleaf pu-erh right now, to be followed with jasmine green tea and maybe a ginger tisane later. Mmm...

After a slightly frustrating drive from Los Angeles to the Bay Area, where I had to pull of the road each time I wanted to refill my dinky thermos-cap-cup, yesterday I bought an insulated cup that will hold a lot more, so I don't have to pull over as much to enjoy my tea all 300+ miles of the drive. Korumi is my new on-the-road tea companion.
After some fall Ali Shan oolong yesterday, today is starting with Jade Pole Yunnan green tea from Yunnan Sourcing.

May you have a bountiful, beautiful day!
A LARGE cup of Adagio's Black Pearl tea this morning! It was a wonderful part of my small breakfast -- a biscuit (Southern style) with seedless blackberry jam. Yum. Oh, and a piece of lovely sheep cheese. Can't remember the name, though!

I'll pass on the car - I'd rather not be on the move while brewing tea!
Tao of Tea's Black Spiral in my cup this morning - this is another really good one, I wish I hadn't waited so long to order from them!
Happy Easter!

That is what those "emergency stopping only" spots are for on the highways!geeber1 wrote:I'll pass on the car - I'd rather not be on the move while brewing tea!
Sounds interesting, especially if it ran on used soggy tea leaves.
The kettle sounds interesting actually.
Began the TD with mystery sencha from Ryu Mei. The lack of sencha here is wearing realllly thin. I have been reallly trying to hold out, but now each tea is getting more and more uninspiring ... however this mystery sencha is pretty good. SweeTea was not complaining while Pyrit and Lili hung out at the TeaTable.
Re: Sunday TeaDay 4/4/10 TeaCar available soon?
Hm, sounds interesting, especially for long drives or trips, but impractical for me.
Genmaicha extra green this morning/afternoon. Off to play disc golf this afternoon, then who knows what kind of tea after that while I spend a lovely Sunday with roommates and friends who come to visit!!!

Low fire glowing in the furo, chagama simmering with a quiet bubbling sound, smell of charcoal smoke.............
