We woke up to more rain today, but were thankful that it stopped enough this afternoon for Jim to ride to HEB for apples and what not. I rode around the neighborhood after supper just to be out and about in the coolish dampish 70 degree evening. The evening sky above the middle school soccer fields was beautiful.

As an aside, I had a chuckle at work today while I inventoried my office’s tea supply. (It is vast.) My friend and friend-by-association across the pond have written about tea and the proper way to make it. What I discovered today would horrify them. I think.

I found three or four pouches of this stuff, and when I mashed them to find out if the tea was loose or in a bag, and then opened the pouch, I found neither.

Hmm. Where’s the tea?

Quik Tea is powder. Rebecca and Terry, would love to know what you think. 🤭 (I imagine my mom disapproves of the incorrect spelling of “quick”: it should be spelled q-u-i-c-k, not q-u-i-k.)
