Things I Miss #1: Today is for Tea

In 2 weeks I’ll be taking off on my flight back to Darwin, and eventually Sydney, ending my stay current eight week stay in Singapore. The two stays combined will be 13 weeks in Singapore out of the past 4 months of almost constant travelling.

I’m rather excited to be going home, so I thought I’d document one thing that I miss about home each day, and today is “Tea”.

I don’t drink coffee of any description, and I find the whole wankery around coffee of late quite dull1. However, I do love my tea. Everything from Bushell’s Australian Breakfast (my favourite standard black) to T2 and herbals. Just not anything that tastes flowery, or worse, has flowers still in it.

I have quite the collection of teas at my apartment, and some fairly glorious mugs that hold half a litre. Perfect for winter when you want to fill your belly with that lovely scruffy warmth.

While I’ve been abroad I’ve been struggling with Yellow Label and some of the dinkiest teacups you’ve ever seen, and for that, I’m looking forward to getting home.
