Want a nice, warm cup of “infusion?”
You’ve got a burning question: “What kind of tea did the Pilgrims and Native People drink at the first Thanksgiving?” I’m here to help. Or at least, I tried. The answer was both frustrating and educational. This fall I found myself in Plymouth, Mass., the very spot where those Pilgrims set foot in the Americas to make a go of it. Of course, I had to go over to the Plimoth Plantation (yeah, it’s spelled like that) to see a re-creation of a Wampanoag Homesite (the tribe of the Native People who were living in the area back in 1620), and the village of the English colonists, set up to look like it would have in 1627. “Ooh,” I say to myself. “English people drink a lot of tea. I’m going to ask them all about it. This will be … Continue reading
Two leaves and a … heh, heh
Several weeks ago we had a job opening and ads placed in local newspapers. Soon after we received a call from someone who was interested because they thought we were a medical marijuana dispensary. It makes sense — “bud” is one of hundreds of references to pot, and ever since our state of Colorado legalized the sale of medical marijuana, dispensaries have been opening at a steady rate, including three in the town of Aspen, not far from our office. (A friend of mine noted only Aspen would have more medical marijuana dispensaries than pharmacies.) Whoever answered the phone was good at explaining that we sell tea, not Cannabis. And we all shared a laugh after she hung up. And then we shared another laugh when someone walked in our front door last week and asked the same question. So … Continue reading
Now that’s good Chamomile
- An e-play in one act – Scene: two leaves and a bud tea co. office, Basalt; Wednesday, Nov. 11, 3 p.m. Cast: Richard, two leaves and a bud founder Naomi, two leaves and a bud communications manager ### Richard <appearing in Naomi’s office suddenly>: Tell me something. Naomi <turning around>: What? Richard <holding an open but empty packet of Chamomile under Naomi’s nose>: Do you smell honey? Naomi <sniffing>: Yeah. Richard <walking away>: Okay. Naomi <watching Richard walk away>: What did you need me to tell you? Richard <pouring hot water over his Chamomile in the kitchen>: Nothing. Naomi: Huh? Richard: It smells like honey, and apples. And there’s no straw-smell. Now that’s good Chamomile. The End
Finally, a tea tag solution
So you’ve just torn open the wrapper to a fresh sachet of your favorite two leaves and a bud tea, and plunked that sachet in the bottom of a big mug while waiting for your water to boil. It boils. You reach for the kettle, move your over-eager face back from the mug so the steam doesn’t hit you right in the eyes, and start pouring. And then it happens — your biggest peeve with two leaves and a bud. That little tag that tells you you’re about to enjoy a better cuppa tea falls right into your mug, and is floating there on top of the sachet while your tea steeps. It’s not like having that tiny piece of paper afloat is going to ruin your tea, but darn it, you’re just so sick of having to find a … Continue reading
