25 Cups of Tea
I've often thought that there are few things more soothing than the first sip of tea. One of the only ways to make it better is to share it with a friend. Here are some, not all, of my favorite cups of tea. If I forgot to put you on the list, add your name in the comments. Or if we haven't shared tea together, let's do.

Amazing Race Snapple tea with B
Papaya Mango, if I remember right. That was a good tea visit!
Tea seems to be the glue of many friendships. Perhaps we should have had tea with turkey instead of sparkling cider and whatever else. Your gifts of teas and teapots and related paraphernalia over the years are each still appreciated. We'll always heat the water for you, daughter.
