Coooooooold out

I would advise anyone that goes out to fill the two gallon bird feeder at 9 in the morning, here, when it's 25 degrees out and there's a 10 mph wind blowing from the north, to wear a coat. I went out in t-shirt, sweat pants, and sandals and by the time I got back into the house I couldn't feel the tips of my toes, nose, or fingers.

Woo.

Mmm... hot tea afterwards was nice. But, yeah, at 25 degrees, the wind feels like it was peeling off the warm layers of muscle to get at my marrows.

The Guang Xi Province Congou, Finest Golden Tips (ZK76) at uptontea.com is pretty nice stuff. Classical red (black) tea depth with a strange golden addition that's kind of malty, mellow, and smooth. Different. Nice. Great hot after a cold outing.
