Green tea... - Page 4

I am very very poor, and can only afford to by good tea once in a great while. When I do I prefer Davison & Newman from London, imported to the United States by the Mark T. Wendell company as Boston Harbor Tea.

Mostly I buy the really cheap stuff at the local store, and I like it fine.

I just got to thinking: wasn't it tea that was responsible for some of the greatest music ever composed? I refer of course to the Pre-Fab Four, the legend that will last a lunch-time, the incomprable Rutles --

Lulz. Actually critics were calling the Monkees the 'Prefab Four' years before Idle and friends appropriated it.

That was one of the kinder things critics used to call the Monkees, IIRC...

Aaaaand guess what I'm drinking right now

Nope, this green tea is definitely good stuff. I can't say I feel any healthier for it, but if you want to sit back and enjoy something slowly, tea is still the best... or 2nd best next to a really good ale, anyway

Reading Reader's Digest tonight and I quote, Research from London suggests that drinking black tea may help you recover from nerve racking events more quickly.

Maybe this is how Londoners handled the daily attacks by the Luftwaffen.

Never liked coffee. Love the smell, can't stand the taste. My mom used to plug her coffee pot into a timer. Instead of the jangling of an alarm clock we were awakened by the smell of coffee brewing.

I've never figured out why I don't like the taste. Tea for me every time!
