Demon: Thing is, I'm not required to go up there or go with him to my grandparent's once a week anymore either since I'm 20. Two years past when that ended. But I still do it to be nice. And so on the weekends I'm with him, I actually get out and go places.

I love tea, especially specialty Chai tea. I have a stone tea pot too, and special german rock sugar for it too. It makes great tea!

That sounds super cool, I just wish I liked tea. ^^

Rei is bored.

I'm sorry you're bored, Rei.

There are tons to try Bandit ^^ some can be bland but others, especially those with fruit can be really nice <3

@Bandit: You would probably like tea if you tried some really good stuff! I go to this store in the mall close to my house that has tea in loose leaf form, and it is really extremely fresh. Lipton tea just doesn't compare, lol!

Rei finally got her crown.

I guess I just need someone to make it for me properly.

*Makes Bandit some tea* Hee hee. :3

Yeah demon, i buy loose tea from online. i found this site called Adaggio (spelling is prob wrong) and they make a lot of good stuff ^^

Yes, there can be an art to brewing tea properly.
`laughs`
However, I just use the teabags.

Janus, dear, I'm sorry I didn't see you there!
Quite a few people do like honey in their tea.

Back now. For now. I just have to pack my laptop, mouse, and charger for it. Then I'm done. But since I'm currently using it, I can't. XD

Aw thank! -sips slowly- It's delicious!

I've got my regular tea preparations down to an art. Teabag and cold water in a microwave safe mug. In micro for 2 minutes. Pull it out when it dings and dunk the bag a few times, squeeze to side of mug to get the last of the bag out, and then toss bag. Sweeten as needed and go sit down.

I do have some loose tea and a strainer, but it takes longer to fix tea 'properly'. XD

Jezriel, your supposed to put the tea bag in the microwave as well? XD I just put a measuring cup with water in it and eat it up in there until it starts bubbling. Then poor it into a mug that has my tea bag in it and then cover it up and let it sit. XD

Boom boom boom.
I'm watching titanic!

I think either way is appropriate. ^^

I have a water cooler thing that has hot water, so i just put my teabag in a cup, pour hot water and let it steep for however long it needs to ^^

Sovie, I'm not watching anything! I have the Last.fm player playing on my desktop with music similar to Epica playing. XD

I have tried the various loose teas with the different "contraptions" or brewers that you can purchase.

They don't seem to work as well as a nice, fresh teabag.

I also use a machine for making a single cup at a time.
I don't care for the microwave. It always makes foam, and I dislike foam on my tea.

I don't I like foam on anything.

I bought a thing of tea filters/bags for my loose tea. makes it so much easier :D

I like soap foam or like shaving cream foam. It's fun to play with. XD But as for drinks, it's annoying.

I agree with Terrena. ^^
