First mug of tea. Second is already standing by.

I just tried Barley drink courtesy of my sister's recommendation, and I like it very much. It reminds me of Matcha Green Tea (which is one of my favorites) and I like its aroma (if you would call it that since the one I had is actually a cooler.)

I believe what you're drinking would be called 'mugi-cha' in Japanese. I much prefer it cold rather than hot. Business hotels in smaller cities and towns in Korea usually have large urns of this in the corridors of building, so guests can fill pitchers to bring into their rooms. The water quality out of the tap in rural Korea is not quite up to the most sanitary standards...

Second mug of tea in the middle of a busy day. Tomorrow is already scheduled to be just as busy (or more so) but at least it shouldn't start on ice-covered roads!

(And I'm already planning for mug #3.

In the office where my backup supply of Peet's Anniversary Breakfast Blend tea ended up. Still have half a tin of it left.

So, a big mug now, nearly finished. Time for a second steep.

Bilbo1967 · 01-12-2015, 02:19 PM

A glass of Fitou at the moment.

poohbear_nc · 01-12-2015, 08:03 PM

Big mug of noodle soup! No real fowl were harmed in making it ....

And what did you hear, my blue-eyed son?
And what did you hear, my darling young one?
I heard the sound of a thunder that roared out a warnin'
I heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world
I heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a-blazin'
I heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin'
I heard one person starve, I heard many people laughin'
Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Good morning, everyone! Friday the 13th comes on a Tuesday this month, just in case you were wondering. That's always been a lucky day for me, and it's starting off well. My watch was returned from the shop with only an $80 repair bill instead of the $250 that was estimated. I like that! The braid that I'm working on for a friend will take the three spools of cord that I already bought, not requiring another trip to the store for a forth. I like that too. And I'm drinking Heladiv's 'English Breakfast' tea and it tastes pretty darn good, so it's a full hat trick of happy this morning !

Great hearing you've been having an awesome day Stitchawl! Friday the 13th is usually lucky for me too, because I consider 13 my lucky number, even if numerology tells me otherwise. Haha

Tea enthusiasts all over this thread! I love it so much! And @astrangerhere I love Stash, their Premium Green Tea is always part of my grocery list.

Stitchawl · 01-13-2015, 05:38 AM

I knew today would be a great day! This afternoon I found 10 baht lying on the ground!
And now I'm drinking Ahmad's 'English Breakfast' tea and getting ready to make some Tandoori Chicken for dinner. I'll cook tonight as my wife is busy playing table tennis with her club until 6pm.
