Sounds great - never come across this
though I will be detailing my masala tea recipe (cooked for 6 hours over a tea light for the retreaat
sounds wonderful, and aromatic
our retreat is sounding more and more interesting by the day
============
One of my favourite tea pots
was made of dark clay with a wicker handle
Did it feel good to the touch? I like to wrap my hands around the tea pot for warmth.
Orange spice is nice
assam I know - others are unfamiliar
tea is (IMO) far more subtle in variety and tastier than wine
Shadow - from CeyLon/Sri Lanka
goes on about silver tip tea - which is the young shoots only
That sounds wonderful, it must be delicate. Think about the flavor of young sweet grass compared to the older coarser dark green shoots.
My Mother (one of them) was from Scotland (the other one from Germany)... the ritual in our home was coffee at breakfast and lunch, but always tea in the evening. But i think Americans have always been at a disadvantage about tea. The selections in the supermarkets are scanty - loads of Liptons and Constant Comment and Celestial Seasons and whomever makes Earl Grey.
- am trying out Skype with Joyce - at the moment we can get a ring tone but errors
she is changing to a more powerful computer and we will try again
I believe that the plantronics usb headphones and mic should work on this computer, should have thought of that sooner. If not, setting up the linux box is an option.
We have the technology
- skype also comes with IM (instant messaging)
like ICQ or curlchat (without the character)
It's IM had a nice feel to it, crisp and not cluttered... it seemed much faster than trillian or msn.
I rather like the idea of a 4 way conference (the max using skype - and using our phones to chant together
or recite poetry - or tell jokes
Or sharing recipes if the wiki keeps on as it is - the pierogi sound yummy... and of course the masala tea for the retreat.

Funny you should mention it... I'm using IE on a computer that does not have FoxFire (yet)... and it's odd, but suddenly i cannot find the little tick box in yahoomail that lets a person toggle between text-only and html mail. There used to be a link to click but it seems to have disappeared??? How odd... Well, next time will use a better browser.
A question, have been doing some preventive maintenance on this computer (belongs to Monica and Roberto). I downloaded spybot and ran the search for updates, it located the updates, and when i clicked to down load the updates, each of them returned a message saying "failed checksum"... Has anyone else experienced that? What does it mean?
Running without the updates, spybot found more than 70 individual malwares here. Am running spy doctor next, then spyware blaster. This is fun!
Thanks to everyone who is adding to the peace wiki... i like Lynn's tomato!
love and peace,
joyce
