Lapsang Souchong

17 May 2004

This weekend was very rejuvenating. The weather was beautiful and the town was minus over 5,000 college students. Campus was a ghost town, perfect for a little amateur skateboarding. Downtown was pretty desolate as well. Sunny weather invited me to do some outdoor sketching at the square. I drove by my future apartment enough to give my soon-to-be neighbors the impression of a stalker. Added a new Black Tea to my collection called Lapsang Souchong, it smells like campfire.

That was my weekend, tell me about yours?

I was disgusted by my first A Marca Bavaria (a beer). I’ll never drink it again.

This is a beautiful site, Nathan.

Friday, shopping. Saturday, beautiful weather, buckets of alcohol. Sunday, sleep - NBA Playoffs - Chinese food - sleep.

The preview technique here is working for Opera 7.23 and 7.5 on Windows, and with Firefox 0.8 also on Windows - seems to be just IE on Windows that doesn’t like it. I can’t get it working in any browser at Hicks Design, however.As for the tea, I definately fell into the “hate it” camp :) I love black tea, but prefer it a little sweeter - assam with vanilla is my current favourite.

Paul: I first tried Lapsang Souchong at a tea tasting session and the smell sort of turned me off. They warned us we would either love it or hate it, and I guess I fell in love :)I’m using the same technique for the preview as John Hicks. It’s not working for windows users at the moment.

that’s a really nice automatic preview you have on these comments, by the way

did you like the tea, though? My single experience of Lapsang Souchong was that it not only smelt of campfire, it also tasted of campfire :(
