The only addition to tea I find acceptable is jasmine or genmatcha with the roasted rice pieces. I'm with you. Picard liking scented bathroom cleaner tea is improbable. I don't want to go out. I do want tea.

Scented. Ffs autocorrect.

The only thing I find unconvincing about Jean Luc Picard is that he'd prefer scientific tea. Bergamot oil is nice in bath products but gets right up my nose in tea.
Not quite as bad as lapsang souchon though.

I'll drink the Earl Grey. We get through gallons of it here.
Camilla and I will brew up a vat.

Morning. (Stares at Earl grey). I've no real tea.

Olderbadger1 · 07/09/2021 17:02

Camels love Earl Grey - goats not so much. Morning Detroit!

DetroitNeedsADog · 07/09/2021 16:46

..Wierd shortages in all kinds of groceries here. The great bottled water shortage appears to be over though.

DetroitNeedsADog · 07/09/2021 16:45

Parsnip chips you say?
I accidentally bought earl grey tea. It tastes like soap. Now i have to go out and try and find non soapy tea.
Do camels like earl grey?

Olderbadger1 · 07/09/2021 00:45

Think the camel has eaten the last of that hand-baked on volcanic limestone in the Virgin islands batch of parsnip and beetroot crisps - only Marmite or cheese & onion left. There is a pickled egg though - any use?

AssassinatedBeauty · 06/09/2021 23:52

I'm in dire need of refreshment... perhaps a non-alcoholic beer? And some naice crisps.

theThreeofWeevils · 06/09/2021 21:51

Some apple cake going here if anyone wants a consolation prize (goat permitting)

GrumpyMiddleAgedWoman · 06/09/2021 20:48

WOOT!
@TofuDelights wins the cake!

First clue = sounds like female sheep. Ewe. You.

TofuDelights · 06/09/2021 20:38

Even if I am right I am still somewhat dim as I got the second word entirely wrong and still can't figure out the first clue. I'm exiting with embarrassment now.

TofuDelights · 06/09/2021 20:27

Aha!! You can't argue with stupid???

GrumpyMiddleAgedWoman · 06/09/2021 20:06

I missed out 'like' after the ear.

GrumpyMiddleAgedWoman · 06/09/2021 20:05

Some great ideas here.
First two words are 'you can't'

Third word, verbal 🤼
Extra clue, first syllable 👂💪minus m.

You can't adopt women's sex

theThreeofWeevils · 06/09/2021 18:55

You Can't Always...

Wrangle Swedes
Write Sonnets
Wear Socks
...?

midgemagneto · 06/09/2021 18:46

Well I have the first word ...

GrumpyMiddleAgedWoman · 06/09/2021 18:41

I should just add that the second word is NOT anatomical, just in case anyone is wondering.

TofuDelights · 06/09/2021 18:19

I am a bit dim but even I can get the second word! Totally drawing a blank on the first though. Think I will shut up and let the smart patrons work it out!! Blush

GrumpyMiddleAgedWoman · 06/09/2021 17:33

Errol, that is a perfect clue for the first word.
Second word, 🥫+t
