Slow down, you move too fast.
You got to make the morning last.
Just kicking down the cobble stones.
Looking for fun and feelin' groovy.

A sunny Thursday mornin and I'm ready to rock! Bigalow's English Breakfast tea as mug #1 and it tastes just fine!

Shel, tell me now, isn't that one of the prettiest bottles on the shelf? Personally, I prefer rubies to sapphires, but if I had a natural stone this color (the only ones I've seen this color are Linde star sapphires, and those are man made,) I'd swap rings in a minute!

What is it about the Pu-erh teas that you like so much? You seem to be as locked into those as I am into the black teas.

I think Stichawl mentioned it somewhere for stomach-aches.
DB, for some reason, ginger has a very powerful calming action on the stomach. It's a common cure on dive boats for sea sickness, a traditional folk remedy for cramps, and people who are suffering from the nausea of Chemotherapy and Radiation treatments find it a great held to calm the stomach! It can be ANY ginger product. I got my mother hooked on Ginger Snap cookies when she was having her Chemotherapy. She said it was the only thing that really worked to relieve the problems. She gobbled them down with glasses of ginger ale!

... and that gets me to cup #2 this morning. I think it shall be...
Taylors of Harrogate's 'Yorkshire Tea!'
