Unfortunately, there's much in our every day world that we can't control -- we are inhaling and consuming lots of stuff we don't even know about. I was at the grocery store today and forgot to pick up my favorite organic tea. :/ Enjoy time with your guest.

I'd definitely drink the rest of the tea, the idea of the smoky flavor interests me.

Yum indeed! I can understand your need for "instant" sometimes. I've bought baklava at the store (Walmart!), knowing full well it was made with corn syrup and not honey, but I would convince myself it tasted as good!<br /><br />I drink domestic black tea, so I'm not a great source for exotic teas.<br />I'm glad to know about the organic factor though. <br />Happy Tea Day!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03274493238689132223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-59549074504778227102012-05-08T09:34:34.105-05:002012-05-08T09:34:34.105-05:00Oh my...not low calorie there.

Flan is a very popular dish down here in south Texas, it being a Mexican dish. <br />Camera...well I'm going to have to get a new one too as my little Canon 'power shot' is about shot. But it has been a very good camera indeed and I've had it about 8 years. Many, many photos with that one. I'm not sure what I want next.<br />I try to buy organic tea also, but it's limiting. Like you said, it's only once a week.

Your flan looks pretty darn good even with out the goo and your maths reminded me of why I stopped baking for our local market- not only was I not making much money, when you added in things like gas, water (for washing a LOT of dishes;))and of course TIME spent; I was losing money! And although I'm not a ta drinker, your tea looks pretty good too!<br />Hugs,<br />Stephanie<br />P.S. Two years ago, we replaced my camera with a Canon Power Shot- I LOVE this camera, it has all kinds of extras but is so easy to use; VERY user friendly!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02215381410223424522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-55064983681112861952012-05-08T07:44:08.772-05:002012-05-08T07:44:08.772-05:00looks like you are having a Yummy Tea Tuesday! sou...looks like you are having a Yummy Tea Tuesday! sounds wonderful...please don't work too hard getting ready for your visitor, you need to be able to enjoy yourself when he/she arrives! take care...will be anticipating your 'hands' post.Diannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09657202600364368434noreply@blogger.com
