Good that the Home Depot was open and had what you needed!

This morning, Peet's Major Dickason's Blend coffee, with Lion Mountain Keemun up next. A work day here, but should be quiet with all of the US team on holiday.

We had a good Fourth, Little Man ran around with other kids, pouted when we left our friends, and crashed out as soon as we put him in bed. We are blowing off our fireworks on Saturday due to rain.

I am drinking some Sencha today.

Fireworks are a really bad idea here in the summer -- too much fire risk. They save ours for Halloween, and they're done by the local Volunteer Fire Department.

Drinking Lion Mountain Keemun. One of my all time favourites, and one of the few that Peet's still maintains. They only sell it once a year now, and only in 1# quantities. Still, I'll be stocking up this week. Don't want to miss out.

30 years ago I lived in High Bridge, NJ. The town was basically situated in a "bowl," and my house was high up on one side. The fireworks display would be put on at an old industrial area, at the base of the bowl. They would rise up over the trees and I had a beautiful -- and startlingly close -- view from my front deck as they exploded.

And, right now I've just finished the last of my tea. Looks like I have enough Oolong for tomorrow. After that I can open another Oolong or switch to some Temple of Heaven "Special Gunpowder" green tea.

New coffee (for me): Caribou Coffee's Mahogany (dark roast). I think I need to make it a tad stronger (or play with the grind), but it certainly has potential.

Earl Grey Cream now. Yummy.

CRussel · 07-06-2017, 03:24 PM

Still working on my morning Peet's. It's been one of those days.

A Coke Zero from tonight's shopping trip.
