Tea is one of my great pleasures in life - British tea and American tea and Canadian tea and not-actually-tea (herbal blends, I know enough Brits to not dare call it tea).

I actually have a small packet of Iron Goddess of Mercy which I bought for the name alone, but I haven't had a chance to try it yet - I'm horribly lazy and usually make pre-bagged tea rather than the loose ones I have (that, some apricot-peach black tea, and Clipper's Alice blend)

Mmmm... yeah... it's good to have small pleasures.

I love Iron Goddess of Mercy, it's one of those lovely, burgundy-like oolongs, winey and rich and lovely for multiple steeps in Yixing teaware. *laughs* I used to be able to do Chinese old man tea service at the drop of a hat, and now I actually have to measure and time things with a timer rather than with my breaths...

I am very impressed by all the work. (And do let me know if you want more tea, and what sort! Your supplier is always ready. :))

[liralen]

Whee... I shall be very happy to. *grins*

I think you might like how the painting turned out as well. Tell me if you like it and I'll happily send it along after I've backed it...

*goes wow atcha* Busy!

I want to get our basement done enough to reorganize the library around... *sigh*

[liralen]

Very! It's good to have the time and room to do it all in. Whew... and amazing what it does to book accessibility when they're not ALL doubled-up.

[archangelbeth]

Ours are all doubled-up and spreading to take over the rest of the house... *sigh*
