What is in your cup?

[Latinandgreek]

Peppermint tea, and still feeling sick. I'll do a teensy bit more studying tonight, and then off to bed to read and think about what I'll upgrade my 505 to. Ah, such sweet deliberation!

I hope you'll feel better soon! And good luck with your studies

Good luck on your exam and enjoy deciding on a a new e-reader. More importantly, feel better!

Finished 2 pots of Keemun and am working on pot one of Genmaicha (worm tea). (winks)

I have no idea how much liters you all are drinking.....how much is in a teapot? 1/2 litre or more?

I drink app. 2 half cups of coffee a day and in the weekends some white wine and water as well. If I eat salty things when I eat out (I don't use salt in my food), I'll drink some extra water.

In my cup: cold Arabica-coffee.

Get well!

If you like your 505, consider 650. The latter is a worthy follow up to the former.

I have tried a new Pu-Erh tonight. Pu-Erh orange. It was better than Pu-Erh exotic, because I could actually taste dust, err...Pu-Erh I mean..

Just finished a cup of green Assam Khongea. Bancha is the next

*groan* apparently a pot and a half of lapsang souchang is my limit because my tummy just started feeling icky (maybe it is actually a pot). I need to find something I can sip all day. maybe I'll try some jasmine I have at home

the little one I have at work is probably a litre

Thanks, everyone! I'm sure it's just a touch of the flu, I'm sure I'll be fine, soon.

I'm deciding between the 3 new Sony models, actually. I'm going to gift my 505 to my husband (he's been begging me to do that for months), get a Kindle DX for both of us to share for PDFs (he prints so much out for school, and it's all technical stuff full of formulas and graphs, that I feel like it will pay itself off soon, and I have tons of PDFs myself.. some are fine to read on my 505, but some definitely aren't. If only Sony made a 9.7 inch reader, I'd love to have a touchscreen to annotate the PDFs), and an upgrade for myself.

I kind of want to take advantage of the 350 sale, but I'm scared I'll miss the extra inch. I'd love a 950, but as I'm getting a Kindle DX it might be overkill, and I'd be spending more than twice what I would with the 350. See my sweet Sony conundrum? (I absolutely adore alliteration!)

In the winter I drink 3-4 litres a day, in the summer at least 5. Depends on temperatures and exercise.

Take the 350 it is great and big enough. Had a 6incher before and don't miss a mm of the screen size as I am able to read a smaller font on the Sony. I convert all my books into lrf and read the XS-font, which is about 270 words per screenpage.

I tend to see it the other way. I got the 650 as the most obvious replacement for the 505 (with a brief flirtation with the fatally flawed 600 inbetween) and I love it.

I have never owned a 350, but a friend does and, whilst it is also very good, I personally would miss that extra inch. Having said that, the 350 is better for slipping into your pocket and is a fair bit cheaper.

Thanks. I see that I drink very little compared to you. Perhaps with tea, one drinks more.

[ProfCrash]

Each pot is about 18 ounces. I go through close to four liters of water a day with my tea.

So most days I have:

36 Ounces of Rooibos (208)
36 Ounces of Black/Oolong (208)
36 Ounces of Green/A blend /Keemun (195)
36 Ounces of Green/White (175)

So about 54 Ounces of Caffienated tea a day since the second steeping is decaffeinated.

With the tea kettle at home and my drinking my red tea at home or on the way to work I will probably end up at 180 Ounces of tea at work and home. I will probably add in an additional helping of Rooibos or green tea rather then black/Oolong.

It is a scary amount of tea and water a day but it does explain why I am able to go through 20 or so teas in a 3-4 month period.
