Just hear those sleigh bells jingle-ing, ring-ting-tingle-ing too
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you
Outside the snow is falling and friends are calling, "You Hoo"
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you

What is going on?!? This is Thailand. How can it be cold?
Good morning, everyone. I've had to even turn off the fans this morning and put on a T-shirt. If it gets any colder I'll have to close the windows too! It must be 26 degrees outside!@!
Thankfully, I have a big mug of hot Ahmad's 'English Breakfast' tea to warm me up, and in a couple of minutes I'll go down to the food lady and buy something hot and spicy. Of course, in a few minutes the sun will break through the cloud cover and the temps will shoot up to 33...
While walking back from the food court at the shopping center last night we noticed that our new eating habits were rather like being in the Military, college freshman year, or at summer camp; we go to the mess hall for most of our meals or get take-away to eat at home. Very different from how we at in Japan, with me cooking almost every meal. That may happen again after we get tired of eating Thai foods, but so far so good. And several times now at lunch I've had Mexican or Italian food. The various food courts also have Indian and Chinese foods as a rule, and they are all delicious.

I guess it's rather like eating popcorn at the movies or at home... It always tastes different even if you use the same popping oil.

There are a lot of folks who LIKE 'Yorkshire Gold.' I'm just not one of them. You may love it.

I also noticed Taylor's of Harrogate has a Scottish Breakfast. Any comments on that?

If I remember correctly, it has a touch of Lapsang Souchong in it, like Ahmad's 'English Breakfast No.1' Not an 'everyday' drink, but tasty.

Keep in mind that the Tea Gschwender has been recommended to you by someone who would drink "
a fourth steeping of Camel's Breath Puerh."
I find that somewhat frightening.
OK... time for breakie.... and more Ahmad's tea. Can I really hold of until Saturday when my box of tea arrives? I must be stong... be strong... be strong... be....
