Mirjam,

I've always been a coffee drinker. In the last couple of years, I have become an afternoon tea drinker. I found a place that has over 100 different varieties of high quality tea and I am hooked. Rooibos is said to be very beneficial to drink. I have tried many of the 100+ and I want to eventually try them all, but my favorites are cardomon-ginger or lavender tea latte. I buy their premium ceylon by the box to drink at home. The rooibos varieties they have are nice too.

Thanks Sofia :o)

Red tea if I remember rightly is from Africa yes. A friend of mine introduced it to me a few years back.

Don't happen to Spin and/or weave as well do you? Alot do in your part of the world and I do so am just wondering

No sadly not :o( Am allergic to most animal fleeces and furs so I am deprived of trying these out *sulks* lol

ATM however I am focused on knitting, bread making and thinking of starting a new quilt. Only time will tell what grabs my tiny attention span next ;o)

I believe it's possible to get unspun cotton/ soy/ corn fiber, if you should want to try spinning just for the heck of it.
