Make a quart.
Put a tea bag and 2 cups of water in a 4 cup measuring cup Set your microwave for 3 minutes .....while you brush your teeth or put on your makeup. Then remove the tea bag, add two cups of ice to melt and cool down. Add your honey. Pour into a thermos or covered pitcher. Refrigerate.

Dissolve the honey in the hot tea. Much faster.

Ok, fine. Is there better brands of tea bags than others or is it all the same stuff?

Lipton is nasty and tastes like cardboard. Luzianne family size is much better, in my opinion. The loose leaf has so many taste intricacies that I don't like chugging it. When I have time, loose leaf is nice, but it goes stale so fast. Fresh is best.

Take 1/2 glass HOT tea. Top off with favorite berry juice. The berries sweeten the tea. Daughter likes the cranberry juice with tea. Play with ratios to get right level of sweetness.

Most coffee pots have a hot water dispenser now. Carry the TAZO tea bags and some chick-fil-a honey packets with your laptop. I also carry a ceramic mug since paper coffee cups taste like paper. But that's my diet.

BTW - I drink hot tea all year. I'll order ice tea only if it is still hot & without ice. Slightly sweetened is good. I'll mix unsweet with sweet until I get where I want. Some BBQ places serve sugar syrup for tea. Way too sweet.

People every where don't eat Frito pies?

Must have lots of onions and a good squirt of mustard on it.

And pickled Jalapenos since you can't get pequins.

What? Are the 2 horsies you released still around? They need to step up their game.

The chicks the broody hatched at the barn, should be full grown by now.

Someone took them both home.
It's just the two moms still there.
They did just hatch some chicks a few weeks ago but someone took the chicks home too.

No roosters = no chicks.

I think the sole remaining broody hatchling is a cockerel. Australorp or black sex link mix. You want him? Waiting on first crow.

The broody Australorp mix hatchling from last year is a big chicken. The Leghorns are sleek looking standing next to her. She is giving a large brown egg very regularly. 8 days straight then skip one.

The teenagers are:
3 reds - light, medium and dark.
5 black. Some with red speckling on the chest and neck. Interesting looking pullets.
4 Black and White (was 5, but one vanished) - Dominique mix.

Was hoping for more Australorp mixes but Chicken Rancher got some black sex links as layers. I've got chickens. That is all I know.

Mustard?? Nasty.

As opposed to what? The mild, vinegary red stuff that needs more peppers, onions & garlic?

Mustard?? Nasty.

It's just like eating a chili hot dog...you have to put mustard on it.
