suninmyeyes Posted October 22, 2011 (edited) Eating the flowers in the vase! Is this a personal projection or a costum from your part of the world? (you did make me laugh) So Steve , tell us a story that goes well with the cup of tea .. Edited October 22, 2011 by suninmyeyes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChiDragon Posted October 22, 2011 There is a Jasmine Tea. The flower was added to enhance the flavor and fragrance of the tea, thus there is no need to eat the flower. hehehehe............ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

doc benway Posted October 23, 2011 So Steve , tell us a story that goes well with the cup of tea .. I woke up yesterday and had "nothing to do" so I celebrated. I get my tea from my Shifu who buys a few varieties of high mountain tea each Spring. The early Spring harvest is usually the best of the year. The tea I'm drinking lately is mostly this high mountain Wulong from Taiwan. Today, my training partner came over so I used the bigger teapot. This is my favorite - it's got my astrological sign on the top - a rat! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I love having 'nothing to do' celebration, infact it is my goal in some way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
minkus Posted October 24, 2011 Nice teapot with the rat on top. Reminds me of Alice in Wonderland i dont know why, maybe because of the color Bet those tea's your shifu brings with him taste delicious ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
