Welcome to Friendship Tea, a blog of rambling thoughts and daily happenings in the life of Linda, who is passionate about family, friends, life in Kentucky, and all things TEA!
I am taking a break from my posts on children's tea books to show you the ice in southern Kentucky today. School was cancelled yesterday and today. 9 year old AJ is enjoying a cup of Earl Grey while I sip on my English Breakfast tea this morning.
We are having a snow morning. It is so very unusual for Portland. By this afternoon it will turn to rain and go away. But for the morning it is beautiful and so peaceful. Thanks for sharing your ice day.
I have been drinking a lovely oolong and watching the snow.
Oh your world looks just like mine today (posted piccies too), although now it's snowing too! School is off so I have been sipping Earl Grey in my PJ's! Stay warm.
Our winter storm is just now blowing in, starting as snow, changing to ice in the morning. I predict a snow day for the kids, and hot tea (Pai Mu Tan) for me! Nancy
This recipe is for the many hits I receive from searches for "Friendship Tea Recipe" ~~ 1/2 cup instant tea, 1 cup sweetened lemonade mix, 1 cup Tang, 1 tsp. ground cinnamon, 1/2 tsp. ground cloves, Combine all ingredients and mix well. Store in a an airtight container. To serve, put 2 to 3 tsp. mix in a mug and stir in 1 cup of boiling water. Adjust amount of mix to taste. Enjoy!
When the world is all at odds And the mind is all at sea Then cease the useless tedium And brew a cup of tea. There is magic in its' fragrance, There is solace in its' taste; And then laden moments vanish Somehow into space. And the world becomes a lovely thing! There's beauty as you'll see; All because you briefly stopped To brew a cup of tea. ~ Source unknown

Oh dear it sounds very cold! Never mind it's a good excuse to hibernate.
