If you leave them alone...they leave you alone...but some of them are really bad.

IMO....Tea is best enjoyed when it smells good... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beetle Posted January 16, 2008 Author Share Posted January 16, 2008 I have not yet developed a taste for coffeee.....specially filter coffee. The only coffee I like is the beaten coffee my hubby makes. He beats it for about 30 minutes and it becomes yummy. I keep it stored in my fridge for days. But he makes it only about once a year .

Guest dada_rocks Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Tum log chay bana rahe ho ya halwa sara ka sara spice daal diya usmein.. Chay mein anything beyond ginger is big nooooo for me Get a coffe-maker and brew tea in it u will inculcate liking for even black-tea no need of even sugar.......And then get those dark chocolate the one that tastes bitter, get used to it.. U will thank me later if u are stuck with a wife who treats food as medicine.. I Now love it.. black tea and dark chocolate there is nothing like it..
