Do you like a strong cup of tea?
I found this in Belfast a few years ago.
It's the best tea I've ever tasted.
It's not cheap, but trust me - it's worth it.

Loved the photo of Yankee Stadium, especially the on deck "circles". I mean the on deck advertisement.
ReplyDeleteI frankly don't give a rat's ass what people think about how I dress, what car I drive, etc. I'm neat, clean, generally well-mannered. If someone concludes I'm stupid, poor, or makes some other pejorative presumption based on how I look, that may be their problem, it's certainly not mine.
ReplyDeleteI was car shopping a few years ago, and a neatly dressed older gent - jeans and a work shirt - was ignored by the sales staff for a while. Older salesman noticed, approached, and while I was there sold him a six figure car. Cash. I heard him tell a couple of 25 year olds "never assume". He was right; I happened to know the guy: he could have bought the dealership for pocket change. Same guy went to my barber; he picked a chair and took his turn like the rest of us. Nobody in the community thought anything about it, it was just the way he was. He was the same way at the local burger joint. Grabbed a stool, took his turn.
I wear clean t-shirts, cargo shorts and sandals year round here in Gainesville, FL. Why? Because, during the day, even if it's freezing outside, some jackass will turn the heat up to 80-85 degrees in the stores or offices.
ReplyDeleteThe only time I wear sweat pants and a jacket is when it's actually friggin cold outside and I have to walk the dog.
As to that Black Cherry Extract? Haven't been woken up by 'burning feet' since I started taking it. Thanks to you posting that info I can get a decent night's sleep (except for lurching to and from the bathroom, of course.)
