While my grandmother is sitting on a beach in Cuba – scratch that, she’s most likely in her hotel room complaining about having to be there for free – I’m stuck in -40C weather. Not that I’m bitter or anything….* grumble *
Had this today and it made my day so much better. Steeped it 4 times.

My sympathies, I would love to be there too. Where is she vacationing?
Some small remote island off the coast. Either way, I’m so jealous it hurts. :P
Cayo largo? It’s nice and quiet there with only @4 resorts. The fly ins gorgeous. But it is pretty isolated. You really have to want a beach vacation. I’d be jealous too! On the other hand, I can’t say I’ve had nice tea in Cuba, usually just chamomile. They do have some awesome coffee. Hope your Grandma has a nice time!
I’d be happy with any vacation right now, haha! I believe it’s somewhere called Santa Maria or something though? She only ran it by me once.
I’ve heard of Cuban coffee being very good!
Thanks, I hope she does too!
Opposite coast! I can imagine! This is the first real winter that I remember in a long time. Pretty spoiled, right? Oh well, to live vicariously through friends and relatives. One of my friends is on a ship circumnavigating Africa, another is in the Philippines, another in Mumbai…I wish.
I’ve been to Santa Maria (and Cayo Largo, amongst other places in Cuba). Beautiful, remote little place. Not much to do, but if you want a vacation where you sit on the beach, walk on the beach, drink on the beach, and eat on the beach it’s the place for you!
Your grandmother sounds like my dad. Always complaining about everything on vacation, and then the very last second right before stepping on the plane to come home the vacation is finished with “that was a nice time. I can’t believe it’s over so soon.” WE ALL CAN.
