MJ's little flock

[LozzyR]

It was quite nice, slightly floral.
I love the cup and saucer too.


They are not that common. I have tried a couple that were just like grass clippings

The nicest one I ever had was a jasmine where the ball sank to the bottom of the pot, opened up and released an arch of jasmine flowers all strung together. It tasted fantastic too. Wish I could find it again.

Where did you get them ACM? I imagine you can get them in Sydney but that’s a Covid-19 hot-spot just now!

I got the jasmine ones ages ago at a tea shop in the mountains which has since closed.

The one I had on Saturday was from a shop in Berrima NSW, "Mrs Oldbuck's Pantry"

I just found a couple of shops on-line that are in Victoria that look promising.

Tribe 2.
Very hard to get a picture of Tack's face with that hairdo. She's the one in the center picture at the front.
Last picture shows, (I should have posted an old picture) how much better Mag's legs are. His legs were as bad as Lock's.

I had a cup of tea made with a "tea ball" that opens up when boiling water is added. I thought my chook friends might find it interesting.

Well, it is Caturday...

It's not fair! I can't abide tea but tea has such lovely fun things to play with! Last year I bought all the tea drinkers in my life pretty, fun diffusers. I'll have to look round for these tea ball thingys.

Then I guess you haven't heard of "Tea Pets" either? When you sit down with your pot of tea and cup you pour a little of the tea over the tea pet first. Over the years of regular use it becomes glazed by the tea.

Here are some specially for chook friends.

Not tea pets as such but I did know about the glazing ~ Sherlock, you know... I'm glad I have been useful.
