Tea.

I used to dislike it.

But this afternoon, I'm drinking a lovely plain black tea from Sri Lanka, contemplating the mist outside the window, and almost happily staring at my notes.

Strange how things change. Before I found my way into Palais des Thés on Wicklow St. (or is it Georges St? Who ever remembers these things?) I would never have imagined finding tea pleasurable.

Now, it helps me work through the afternoon.

It's been my impression that many non-Americans (and probably non-Southerners, for that matter) have either never heard of or never had iced tea. (Is that right?) That's how my tea habit started - tea chilled in the fridge, with sugar most often, sometimes lemon. I've graduated to hot teas of various sorts now.

In this country, it's rarely sensible to ice your drinks. :P

I had a can of iced tea in Greece, and hope never to repeat the experience. Tea should be hot. It doesn't have the same flavour cold. :)
