coffee, tea or me

[qoph]

I am not a tea drinker. I prefer coffee or water my own self (rebl1969, you've totally got me saying "My own self." I hope you're happy). I have a coworker who I want to do something nice for. He loves tea, so I thought of buying him so snazzy tea. But he's a total tea snob and I don't know a thing about tea. Can anyone help a girl out

i don't know if a tea snob would use one of these, but a practical tea drinking person like me loves a magic tea maker: http://www.dragonwater.com/product_detail.tf/632_magic_tea_maker.html

AHHH! Tom Waits in playing in Akron and it's sooo sold out and i'm sooo broke.

I'm pretty jealous! You'll have to tell me all about it.

Ha ha ha, I corrupted yooooo-ou!

I loves me some Russian Caravan. It's a blend of Lapsang Souchong and Keemun, and is smoky-tasting and perfect with some cream and sugar. Lots of coffee drinkers like Russian Caravan as well, so pick some up for yourself while you are at the Fancy Tea Store.

John got us tix to see Tom Waits in Memphis!! Happy anniversary to us.

I'm trying to avoid becoming a tea snob myself, so I'm probably not the ideal person to ask. That said, maybe buy him a Teastick? I'm told that it's not open enough for certain teas, but I think that more of the appeal lies in the design, and in the way it facilitates making single cups of loose-leaf teas.

Also, I don't suppose it would help you to observe that those same stewardesses wrote at least one other book.
