tea time


Today was one of those days when a regular cuppa tea just wouldn't do...the craving had struck, and how! If you've ever had the pleasure of enjoying a good strong mug of Hong Kong-style milky tea, you'll agree, just the memory of its sweet, rich smoothness will make it impossible not to head on out and find a cuppa. (Immediately, if not sooner.)

And so, a special little trip was made just to pick up a few key items...gotta have the Carnation.

This stuff is strong. And unbelievably delicious when served with lashings of sugar and creamy goodness....

Making the brew. (It's steeped, har har.)




Adding the fixins...

...and next, curling up to a Flight of the Conchords marathon. A perfect afternoon!
