The Sassy Lawyer & Pinoy Cook on food, family and home.
I’m breaking my Bailey’s in the afternoon habit for today. I’m hard coding some stuff in Home cooking rocks! and Feast Asia and I don’t want to accidentally delete them because Bailey’s is so good that one glass calls for another and yet another. So, it’s green tea for the rest of the afternoon. It’ll help me digest lunch too.
I prefer loose tea leaves but I have these organic green tea in bags that I don’t want to rot in the pantry.

Your tea cup is so cute! I love it! I love tea. Organic loose leaf is the way to go for sure, but I do understand wanting to use what you have. When I realized how much better loose leaf was I took my box of organic green tea packets into work and used them there until they were gone. Kept the good loose leaf at home for enjoyment. Have a whole website devoted to tea. Check it out!
