It's a great surface to work on.

Changing that now, I hope.

Your gallery is wonderful by the way.

I'd like to try working on stained paper now. :]

Thanks for the fav!

AP, eh? I did that for my last two years in high school. I learned a lot... take full advantage of it!

haha
why thank you

I like your gallery by the way :]

why not!!!

I try. My tea snobbery sometimes goes unnoticed, though. Not often do people discuss tea these days. ; )

Tea is healthy for you. Antioxidants galore, and tannic acid and wonderful things. Honey, too. Better for you than sugar, so just use tons of honey if you like sweetness. Tea is ultrahealth! *laughs* Also, it cleans out your system. I live on it, most days. Though lately, too much soda. I sometimes wish I didn't love Coke so much as I do. Or Root Beer.

Honey: antiseptic, sweetener, source of vitamins. The roman legions used it for battlefield wound treatment, we use it in tea, and the body digests it easier than sugar. Bees put lots of vitamins and enzymes in it. So yummy.

You know a lot about tea.
I'm definitely going to try at least one of those.

I've just been drinking it lately to try and cut down on soda, so I started getting black tea at Starbucks.


I have a habit of liking lots of sugar, though. :/

HEYYYYYY!
I didn't know you had deviant! :]

It's amazingly strong lemon tea. Needs no sweetener, either. Which is nice. ; ) Although kind of scary.

Chai may be garnered from either of the following (and should be, since it's godly):

1. Brew a pot of black tea (earl grey or assam or whatever) on the stove in a cooking pot half full of water. Size depends on how much tea you want. Add in cinnamon, cloves, ginger and cardamom pods (5). When it's hot and steeping, ad 1/4-1/2 cup of sugar, blend, then add milk until the pot's nearly full. Equal parts milk and water, or more milk if you like it milkier. Heat for a while. Dip out with ladle and into cup. Enjoy. Leave the pot on the stove for chai whenever (though if unused for a while, refrigerate the tea). This is one of the traditional indian ways.

2. Go to Starbucks, Tim Hortons, Panera, Teaism, Corner Bakery, any random coffee shop. Most have chai these days. Beware Borders Books', for they have fallen from grace when they got Seattle's Best coffee products. Also, Starbucks' isn't too great. Never drink chai if it's "Oregon Chai" brand. They're awful. Big Train and Pacific and Harney & Sons are lovely.

3. Make a cup of chai with someone's chai tea in sachet/bags. Only halfway fill the cup. Add hot half & Half to fill it, and honey to taste.

All of those sound pretty great.
I'm gonna have to look for them next time I'm out.

No, I'm afraid I haven't, but it sounds wonderful just from the name.

Very English of you, that tried-and-true teabrewing method. ; ) I'm a epicurean of teas (among other things).... I would give my soul for the perfect cup of Indian spiced chai. Also, I love me some blackcurrant tea. If you can find that, it's the perfect taste to complement plain black. Honey is a must in almost all tea.

Have you had Celestial Seasoning's "Lemon Zinger"?

Usually I'm kind of a simple black tea (occasionally with milk) person, I'm afraid I haven't ventured too much in the world of tea.

Anything you'd recommend?
