Cold again today, need lots o’tea. Also, after being somewhat Earl Grey deprived over the holiday weekend (we had Rishi Earl Grey which is good! Don’t get me wrong. But…there was not a lot and we had to split it and it was kinda…weak. and the water wasn’t very good. and that’s coming from someone who lives in Santa Barbara, motto: “Holy Shit The Sediment In My Electric Kettle Is Like An Inch Thick”) I decided to get all Earl Grey-y today.

Mmm, delicious Earl Grey Special, you are complex! But delicious.

Bio

I’m a Pole who grew up in Texas, is currently a graduate student in California studying Japan. How’s THAT for random?

Being Polish, my family has always drunk a lot of tea, and I am no different. I may drink more tea than water. On the other hand, I can’t say that I’m very particular about it; I’m generally pretty careless with steeping times and water temperature and I don’t even have a proper teapot (mostly because the lid broke during the move to California ;_;).

I always drink my tea unsweetened and I only add milk in the case of the most egregiously chai-ish of chais. (not really a big fan of milk in general)

Given that so many of my entries seem to be about my morning tea, I felt I should add something here about me and mornings: I fail at mornings. I fail at them a LOT. Therefore I often also fail at proper tea making in the mornings.
