Me, I'm starting the day with a cup of latte macchiatto.
Happy Birthday! And thanks for the tea, LOL.

Aqualand. Little daughter had a ball. I have never seen her so happy and excited. She run all the time from one slide to the other, from 11:30 to 6. By that time, we adults were totally zonked. I saw so much human flesh in all possible forms, shapes and ages that I want to become an hermit.

Yerba Mate is a plant grown in South America that is used to make beverages. The traditional way of drinking mate is to tightly pack the leaves into a gourd and add hot water. The same gourd full of tea is re-steeped many, many times. They normally add sugar, honey, or other sweeteners because the mate itself is bitter.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yerba_mat%C3%A9

I make my mate using stove top coffee maker for a more concentrated flavor and then add it to slightly warmed milk. Yerba Mate Latte.
Guys, Yerba Mate - I know but thanks nonetheless. I have roasted mate at home and drink it from time to time. Or rather used to drink until I discovered all sort of odd teas.

On the other hand Yerba Mate Latte sounds odd and has piqued my curiosity

In the US Red = Rooibos.
I am surprised that Pu-Erh is called red tea.
Chinese call our black tea (Assam, Ceylon, etc.) - Red Tea.
Chinese call China Black (Keemun, Yunnan) - Black tea.
It might include cooked Pu-Erh, but I am not sure. Pu-Erh green or cooked is probably a tea of its own because it is a fermented tea.

Chinese Black teas are special



I stumbled upon a few interesting websites/shops?
RedCircleTea (from my bookmarks) and The Journal of Chinese Medicine a new one for me and worth investigation.

I am off to bed. I caught a cold and feel awful.
Just finished a cup of Lapacho.

You made me laugh out loud. I'm glad little daughter had so much fun, though!

I thought you'd say you wanted to be single again

@ Astra: get better soon.

Hehe He came over tuesday evening and spend the night, so he could wish me happy birthday at midnight. Which he did. Several times. Very enthusiastically. Yep, it was a very fruitful night
Downside was that we were both pretty much worn out yesterday evening so he left pretty early (around 11PM) so we could both get some much needed sleep
Of course he liked the dress, he likes every dress I own. But that's just because he likes seeing me in a dress
Enough detail for you girls?

In my cup: Granny's Applepie. Not great, but drinkable.
