"Greenery" teableau for 03/12/25

The cup & saucer at center are very old, given to my octogenarian friend in her childhood by a WWI English vet disabled from being gassed in the trenches. My friend, raised in NZ, gave it to me in WA State. It's seen some things.

Tea tableau with a green Irish theme including a picture of a leprechaun, an Irish knitted cozy, vintage china and green glass figurines of bird, frog, and teacup, on a crocheted rectangle, with Irish Cream black tea.

Sleepy Monster in a Teacup
Humans aren't the only ones who enjoy a spot of tea now and again. Little monsters have been know to slip quietly into kitchens when no one is around and sneak a sip of two of freshly brewed sweetness. Alas, some of these tiny creatures may become so enamored with the tea, that they sip themselves silly and fall into a state of euphoria, causing all manner of behavior.

Set against a wallpaper backdrop of pale flowering vines, a porcelain teal teacup sits on a plate. In the cup, a sleepy, feathered green-blue monster tilts slightly sideways, Its large droopy eyes and large pink nose look out in a drowsy gaze. NOTE: This description created especially for my lovely blind friend, Georgiana. :-)

The Official Best Decaf Tea Awards (Non-flavoured)
- UK Division -

Thanks to everyone who entered, by which I mean the 5 different boxes of tea I bought this week at great expense. I only really wanted 2 teabags of each brand and now have just under 400 unused decaf teabags. So thanks for that. The results are as follows.

5th place:
-- Dorset decaf, Twinings decaf --
Both just as fishy as every other well-known brand like PG Tips and Tetley but just about bearable.

3rd place:
-- Waitrose own-brand decaf tea, Yorkshire decaf --
Waitrose was the cheapest and also surprisingly mediocre in a good way. Yorkshire decaf has been in my cupboard for years so this is the average standard against which all teas have since been compared. As a Yorkshire lass, Yorkshire tea is part of my religion.

1st place:
-- Clipper Decaf --
Almost like normal tea! That's why it won! But also, it's a B-corp company (which these days is somewhat meaningless. Nestlé is B-corp? Well, okay then...) with environmentally friendly values in all the ways. No fishy tea here, my friend!

Thank you for all the sciencing!

(...Does anyone want a shit ton of decaf teabags that taste a bit like fish?)

Against at wallpapered background of pale green, blue and pink flowers, sits a china teacup. Its occupant is a small blue, tapir-like creature glancing nervously at the viewer. Sunlight casts a gentle purple shadow on the bright golden tabletop. NOTE: This description created especially for my lovely blind friend, Georgiana. :-)
