My Rooibos Cream Caramel reads "this decadent dessert comes guilt free. An overwhelming favorite at the teashop and on cozy couches everywhere. Ingredients: Rooibush tea, creamy caramel bits, and natural flavor.

You can see the caramel in the tea.

Third to it

A cup of Emperors Yunnan, courtesy to The First India Company.
I didn't have this tea for a couple of weeks and really look forward to drink it now Not much of the tea leaves left though. Maybe 5-6 cups top.
So far, I didn't find anything as good or even close to it. The same about Keemun. This Keemun is relatively cheap
Code:
Keemun Downy Bud Tea Loose Leaf - Keemun; 50g £2.75
So, I guess it depends where you purchase teas.

There'll be no strings to bind your hands
Not if my love can't bind your heart
There's no need to take a stand
For it was I who chose to start
I see no need to take me home
I'm old enough to face the dawn

Just call me angel of the morning, Angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, Angel
Then slowly turn away from me

( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8G_Di5O0L4g )

Ohio gozaimasu, everyone! Happy Friday! I'm awake, computer is fixed, and all is well in my world. I hope in yours too! Today begins with a mug of Fortnum & Mason's 'Royal Blend' tea, and there's no bout adoubt it, I'll be having a second mug when this one is done!

I often wonder why some teas are so cheap and yet still wonderful, while others are expensive and often of poor taste. My favorite keemun is an unbranded bag from the Chinese import shop, and costs about $6 USD for 250gm. It's one of my all time favorite teas! Another is another unbranded Ceylon, about the same price. The China Black I import from NY is a bit more expensive, but not that much more. I'm glad I have simple tastes. I can't afford hummingbird tongues.

Hey! Who are you calling Dutch?!? I'm Belgian, and proud to be! Holland ... Tssss ...

But to answer your question: just random cyclists on the street, we're going to ask them questions about their knowledge of the blind spot problems with trucks. I've never actually interviewed people myself, so it'll be a new experience for me. It's really sunny outside right now, I hope it stays that way. I have to do the interviews from 10AM until 3PM.

In my cup: vanille latte macchiato.
