What is in your cup? - Page 2070

Ah, GOOD to see you, ProfCrash. Hope all is well.

I'm drinking Peet's English Breakfast Blend this morning. A perfectly respectable version that can actually be enjoyed without milk. But I'm seriously concerned that Peet's is going to abandon the tea side of their business going forward. Which would be a shame--they've been a reliable source of reasonably priced, high quality, tea for years.

All is well. Work is busy and productive. Lots of travel and fun with the family.

More Pu-Erh

CRussel · 08-17-2015, 02:17 PM

Excellent, and glad to hear it, ProfCrash. I went through a seriously stressed and overworked (very productive) 3 months this spring that resulted in a new book. It's taking longer to recover than it did when I was younger, but part of that is a desire to simply enjoy the summer.

Switching tea for the afternoon -- some Oolong I think.

Second mug of tea on a busy day.

CRussel · 08-18-2015, 01:00 AM

First, a glass of Talisker Storm. And then, to finish off the evening, a wee dram of Lagavulin.

ProfCrash · 08-18-2015, 09:16 AM

Jin Xing Oolong and a boring ass all hands that we have to listen to virtually. Uggghhh

WELCOME BACK!

CRussel · 08-18-2015, 11:19 AM

Apparently it has. Certainly the west coast has stopped being hellishly hot.

Fresh squeezed orange juice while my Peet's Anniversary Breakfast Blend tea is brewing.

ProfCrash · 08-18-2015, 12:43 PM

Work is calmer.

Working on some good Oolong right now.

Calmer work is definitely a good thing.

And I think I'll join you for some Oolong - sounds perfect for an afternoon tea today.

cromag · 08-18-2015, 05:19 PM

Third mug of tea on a nice afternoon.

ProfCrash · 08-19-2015, 09:16 AM

A nice Sencha that my brother brought back from Japan for me. Now some Ancient Pu-Erh from Rishi. Both yummy

Bilbo1967 · 08-19-2015, 01:25 PM

A post-work beer; Peroni.

CRussel · 08-19-2015, 05:53 PM

Faux San Pellegrino. Now that I've got my Sodamod adapter, and two 24 oz. paintball cylinders, I can drink as much of this as I want.

Bilbo1967 · 08-19-2015, 05:54 PM

A glass of Laphroig Quarter-Cask before bed.
