Look who mysteriously showed up at my house for breakfast! (Any Black Adder fans out there? The dog’s head reminds me of the episode where they are trying to rewrite the dictionary…)

Something bold and beefy came in handy this morning after a lousy night’s sleep. I snarfed it so quickly, there wasn’t much time for contemplation; however, I did note that you don’t often encounter a bagged tea that is instantly and easily identifed as, “Wow, that’s Assam!” Strong and acceptable without any additives. I’ll think about it harder tomorrow.

That is the only episode of Black Adder I’ve seen! Revoking my British passport as we speak…

The only ones I watch over and over are those with Fry and/or Laurie in them!

Gmathis: are you a Bertie Wooster fan, too?

Nattie

Yup, I love Stephen Fry!

gmathis

Yes on Jeeves and Wooster—I have those saved somewhere—and though it’s by an American author, I’m currently reading “Around the World with Auntie Mame,” which definitely has the same vibe. She’s currently trying to bluff her way into being introduced into Court circa 1937.
