Guest guest Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 Donna, loose tea, rather than in bags tastes so much better;from many online sources, Peets among them, one can get loosetea: white tea, green tea and black tea and lots of varieties--not cheap, but Oh! So Good!Love and good luck to you,n, whose aversion to tea bags has nothing to do with politics!To: MSersLife Sent: Fri, November 19, 2010 1:49:10 PMSubject: Re: n has wheels! To Donna and group Thank You n, I'll check out "Peets" online.. And now that you've mentioned tea.. and I haven't had a good cup of hot tea in at least a year.. I think I'm going to go find me some.. and make me a cup.. even if it's only Lipton that I can find.. HUGS |)onna Peet's began in Berkeley by "Mr. Peet," who has since died; the chain is all over major cities in California and even on line--nearly the best coffee I have ever had. Safeway sells one called Big River, and there is Rain Forest, and for the very best, but very expensive as the Canadian dollar is worth so much more than ours, is Murchie's from Vancouver Canada; most of these companies also sell really good loose tea, too, expecially Murchie's. I love mine with Milk and Splenda or equivalent (Sucralose). Love, n From: |)onna To: MSersLife Sent: Fri, November 19, 2010 1:19:25 PM Subject: Re: n has wheels! To Donna and group That was even better yet n.. he got to come home with you.. I thought you might be making a cab trip back over, then riding him home later today or something.. I've never heard of Peet's.. Is that something local? Unfortunately, nameless insists that he have his very own spot (oh.. maybe nameless is a girl.. you know being all that "insistent" and "contrary").. in a van of some sort.. Don't know how I'd ever take her on vacation.. Ya know... I could just hug you to pieces n.. You never seem to lose your sense of humor! HUGS |)onna I did not leave Jeff alone; he was with me all the way, including in the trunk of the large cab! Love to you, Donna and to all of you, n P.S. We had Peet's coffee!

To Jackie and group Jeff will be sad that you left him all alone n I had some wonderful coffee last night as well... Dinner was pretty good too.. I'd forgotten the taste of venison.. and he made S.O.S... but over French Fries instead of toast or mashed taters.. Earl is a great cook, but I can't seem to get him to understand that all the spices that I love.. don't like me right now.. but I eat, tell him it's great (cause it is).. then find the bottle of Acid Reducer.. LOL.. Coffee.. now that was the stuff can be ordered over the internet.. begins with a G.. specialty blends.. 's boss sent it home with him, because he was going to throw it away.. So made me some Pecan Torte Coffee.. was pretty tasty.. not something I want daily though.. Think I'll try the Pumpkin Cinnamon next.. I'm glad you had a wonderful evening.. it's nice to be able to get out and about and talk to people.. rather than critters.. I have to remind .. that he's got to start the conversations round here.. cause I got nothing new to start a conversation with.. LOL.. It sounds like you had a great evening.. HUGS |)onna The foot rest lifts upwards towards the chair--for getting in and out. For me, as I have severe peripheral neuropathy, the real problem is keeping my feet on the foot rest; they are bringing me a new one with sides on it--not too high. The belt is a lap belt and works really well. I actually went clear over to Edna's last evening--had to--they had acci dentally left the ringer on their phone on OFF! I took a cab back, but Edna and her adult son gave me a wonderful dinner and coffee! Love to you all, n From: Jackie H To: MSersLife Sent: Fri, November 19, 2010 11:45:06 AM Subject: Re: n has wheels! To n n I'm so happy you have a power chair and you can actually get out of the house and go places in it. What a blessing to live in an area that allows you to do that. Can you get in it easily? I need help to get in mine. Can't lift my leg on the foot rest. But there's no place around here I can go by myself. [too rural] I'd love to be in an area where there are shops I could go into, and just be around people somtimes. Keep on trucking! :-) Hugs from Jackie in Oregon : -- Help Feed The Critters!

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2010 Report Share Posted November 21, 2010 I didn't miss this post n.. I was pretty sure that a loose tea would definitely be better than the bags. After all, like most other "convenience" foods, "convenience" leaves something to be desired in quality.. There will never really be anything just "quite as good" as homemade.. or in this case.. home brewed.. I will be looking at Peets and other places online.. However, we do have an herbal type store out the road.. and they might carry some type of loose tea as well.. Just have to get someone to stop by one of these days.. if we ever have the time & money combination to do so..
