Amazing, aren't they?

They are, but I have gorged on them so much, I'm a bit sick of them now.  Plus they were so expensive!  Can't see me ever buying them again, tbh.

When I lived in England, I craved Texan joints like Whataburger and Houston's James Coney Island. Now that I've been in Texas for 11 years, I really want a phall chicken curry with mushroom pilau rice from two specific curry houses in Reading and Wokingham and Harry Ramsden's lardy fish and chips with bread and butter. It's driving me crazy!

It was mince pies until we ate all of them we brought back. After a trip to the international store while in Evansville (IN) Friday, it has been Punjabi mix.

You know when you drink tea all the time but sometimes you just stumble into a great cup of tea?

Yeah, that just happened to me. [smiley=hug.gif]

Regular ol' Sainsbury's Taste the Difference Earl Grey with a dash of milk - nothing special.

The ginger in the food I was eating might be partly to thank (lentils, grated carrots, onion and ginger... yum!) but it was the best cup of tea I've had in a long time.

Tea, [smiley=iloveyou.gif]!

For a while I was hooked on the quinoa salad from Marks and Spencer. Has different types of vegetables in it, nuts, comes with a soy-ginger dressing. Yum! Was never a quinoa fan until I tried it. Lately I really like Emmi Caffe Latte iced cappuccino (well, it says iced but it's really just chilled).

A person I know just commented the other day that a self-made cup of tea is never quite as good.

There was a place in Bristol I liked a lot. They served the tea in a little single serving pot. The pot held more than just one cup....like 25% more, so you could have a few sips and then top up. It was really good tea too.
I just hope that more people will ignore the fatalism of the argument that we are beyond repair. We are not beyond repair. We are never beyond repair. - AOC

I had another great cuppa last night with totally different food (peas and gnocchi: pea-gnocchi-o ;) ) so it must have been the tea.

I wonder if part of the reason why cafe tea tastes so good is because they're more likely to have a fresh box of tea. We might have just opened a new box and the Sainsbury's tea is foil wrapped, so maybe it was just really fresh.

Supposedly it makes a huge difference with coffee, but I have no idea about tea.

To be quite honest I started drinking tea with a lot of sugar (be still my beating heart), and now without it, there is always a bit of a sense of wistfulness.
