I have a scary story to tell you. It even took place on Halloween! I was out trick or treating with the wee ones while the teenagers stayed home to watch movies. When I arrived home, my mom, told me the teenagers had come down and “gone through” my tea stash (Um, yeah, that was scary on it’s own), but when I looked, all was still in order…
The next day I was cleaning up from the nights festivities and noticed that my brand new yixing tea mug (the one I posted about here: http://tastybrewtea.blogspot.com/2013/10/crazy-cute-new-yixing-mug.html) was missing. Literally, my heart was in my throat. I had only used it once and loved every tiny detail of it. I looked all over and then remembered those teenagers. I went upstairs and found it on the floor, full of hibiscus tea. HOLY $%^&(&^%^&*(!!!!!! So many things wrong with this:
1) Teenager knew it was my new special mug and to NOT touch it.
2) It was left on the floor of a bonus room
3) it was filled with HIBISCUS tea!!!! The worst strongest grossest flavor I would ever want my yixing cup to absorb.
Anyway, after much panic and restrained anger, I cleaned out the mug and put a bunch of scoops of Laoshan Black in it and let it sit all day. Then I did it again yesterday.
Today I’m finally brave enough to see if my mug will insert hibiscus flavor into everything. I chose a strong Laoshan Black to test with and am quite pleased to say I think I avoided a near catastrophe.
Seriously. Teenagers. Argh!
Wow, of all things, hibiscus too! I’m glad the crisis was averted.
Yeah, seriously, I think rooibos would even be preferable to hibiscus. And the tea was called “Big Hibiscus” too, from steven smith. I enacted a, ‘you don’t go near any of my tea stuff if I’m not here’ rule for the time being. I like that she’s getting interested in tea so I in no why want to stifle that, but… c’mon… hibiscus tea sitting overnight in my yixing mug? I
Oh my goodness, happy to hear it was okay! I probably would have flipped out lol, especially because it was hibiscus! At least they didn’t steal it though!
Yeah, at first I thought it had gotten broken and then just thrown away. So at least it was still in one piece!
geez, I think that’s scarier than the Zombie movie I just watched!
That is one seriously cute mug. So glad it survived.
Eek, hibiscus shudders
I’m glad everything worked out for you though.
how does this tea compare to verdant’s? (and i’m glad the tea mug survived!)
Ack! Glad it worked out.
oh no!
