Still a big tea fan.

I love tea.  I even like the types of tea I don't like.  (I don't like black tea, for example, and pu'er is a bit weird...but I like tasting even the ones I don't like on the off chance I'll find a variety I DO like, like Lady Grey.  The varieties are endless, after all, and they all taste quite different from each other.  As a kid I wouldn't have believed that there could be so many flavours of plain tea without anything else added to alter the taste.)

It's been about 4 years since I could drink tea more than once in a blue moon, but my guts have finally more or less stabilized.  It'd probably be easy to screw them back up, but if I avoid the worst stuff, it's probably okay to have most of the rest in moderation.  (Though my issue with dairy is not digestive, so it's out forever except in certain circumstances.  But milk in tea is an abomination anyway, so that issue and this one are not involved.)

Still, herbal is the only option for daily consumption, and because today was weirdly special (seriously, so weird getting a 20-year-old addition to your head removed.  I lisp, now, if I'm not speaking carefully.  I'm sure it'll go back once I'm used to it again, though.) I ordered myself a sampler of Tea Forte's herbal teas.  They all look intriguing.  Herbal tea from the grocery is always boring and lacks the layers of flavour that real tea (any type of camellia sinensis) has, but these appear to be more complex.  Apricot Amaretto and Chamomile Citron and so on...they sound tasty, and Tea Forte gets great reviews.  It's got 20 flavours so surely at least a few of them will be great...

Now I guess I should get back to my game.  (If there can be any SHOULD about playing a game.)  My game-baby, Shin, graduated from being an immobile bed-bean to a gesticulating dumpling sitting up on the bed 1.5 seasons ago, which means he'll finally grow up in 2 weeks of game time.  (Grow up to a toddler or kindergartener, not an adult...a little person who can walk around and do its own thing.)  And once that happens I can take the family to each of the vacation spots...and once I do THAT, the last golden fragment will finally be able to appear on the Honey Tree when I use Royal Jelly, and I'll be able to assemble the fragments into a blueprint for the Toy Robot.

Hmm, Harvest Moon is a kind of complicated game, isn't it?  (I love HM: ANB.  There's just so much to complete...I seem to favour games with an overwhelming amount of tasks and achievements to complete and things to collect, like Harvest Moon, Animal Crossing, and Fantasy Life.)
