Tea? (Part 2)

[welsh dragon]

In Mali ‘gunpowder tea’ is served in three stages. The first, invitingly called ‘bitter as death’, is strong and unsweetened and made from fresh leaves. Then comes ‘pleasant as life’ when the same leaves re-boiled with some sugar. Then the leaves are boiled yet again with more sugar to serve up the final ‘sweet as love’ stage.

How nice, but I don't like tea. Don't even like the smell of the stuff.

See the force is strong.
The body it is wiling, but the mnd it is weak.

If it gets any stronger I am going to burst.

Whoa. Lovely

I have just remembered. I have to order a bunch of flowers for my mammy.

Have you done it yet?

 

[welsh dragon]

Have you done it yet?

No. I will order them tomorrow from Interflora. Every year she tells me not to bother, and every year she loves it when I do send her flowers.
