Has DH got a point about my drinking habits?

Lighthearted!

My lovely DH asked me if we should sell my coffee machine this morning, he doesn’t drink hot drinks but I do.. so feeling rather offended by his wanting to remove my pride and joy I said “No! Why on earth would I want to do that?!”

DH took me by the hand and led me to my.. coffee station in the kitchen.

I think he may have a point 🤣 I do drink coffee.. just not as much as I drink tea🫖☕️

Twinings used to. I think. There's a fennel and peppermint from Waitrose. I also used to get some foreign brand from the corner shop but they stopped it. But I think health food shops must do just plain fennel ones?

@BillieWiper Good point, I'll try Holland and Barrett. Thanks.

Yorkshire decaf is nice compared to others!

Ooh I love a cup of Yorkshire tea! I'm from Newcastle so that must explain it!!

But no teapot OP! that's a sin. We even take a teapot on holiday with us when we go self catering in the UK as some places don't have them! Shock, horror!

So do I. Does it taste nice, @whatofiteh ?

I only drink instant hot chocolate in the morning. Then its water

How is the biscuit brew??? And do you add milk to that and the sticky toffee pudding??

That’s more than acceptable. Instant hot chocolate is lovely!! 😻

Where’s the Wittards @whatofiteh ? Try their Rose and Lychee, it’s lush.

Twinings sleep tea 👌

That’s it? That is barely any evidence.

I recently did a massive clean out of my tea station and pared it down to a selection of about 20 teas.

Only 1 kind of coffee, but 10 syrups and an amazing cocoa powder.

I love seeing other people’s tea stashes. Here’s mine but it often changes.

What does LTB mean? I never have known

I drink so much tea (btw, I don’t drink alcohol and can only drink coffee on occasion, hence the tea problem). I am going away this week and staying at a hotel that doesn’t have a kettle in the room. I know! They have a very nice cafe downstairs, but at £3 a cup, that’s a lot of tea to be purchased over 3 days. I panicked and bought a travel kettle. 😂 I’m taking my own tea (will try to limit it to normal tea and my nightly peppermint and liquorice only). I drink like 4 cups a day so even with the £11 kettle, I’ll be saving money! It’s ridiculous I have to do this though.

Leave The Bastard. Sometimes said in a comedy fashion, as here.

It’s from Argos, it’s a kitchen organiser but i repurposed it! www.argos.co.uk/product/4562881

I love it! I prefer the sticky toffee pudding (very warm ming and sweet taste) but the biscuit brew is perfect when I don’t fancy something as sickly. I add milk to both. I only really drink black herbal teas.

The decaf is for my daughter, she’s 6 and loves a cup of tea with me so that’s belong to her and her alone 🤣

Ah see my comment above! 🫶

If you are in the market for more biscuity brews, I’d strongly recommend M&S shortbread biscuit tea which is my favourite of all the biscuity/cakey/sweet style teas. I add a bit of honey and it’s a hug in a mug.

I’m embarrassed to show you mine. Two types of Earl Grey and my beautiful coffee machine is all.

Just the coffee machine here, and lots of different types of bean.
I don’t drink tea.

Thank you 😄 will give them a try

The M&S shortbread tea is superior to the biscuit brew IMO.

I am still grieving the loss of Jam on Toast tea so need to try the Victoria Sponge one to see if it’s the same or similar. Side note, if anyone has boxes of the old jam on toast tea lurking around I’ll pay an extortionate amount of money for it!!

I don't drink hot drinks! I really want to like them I just cant!
