Green Tea KitKats and more
My student brought in two bags of green tea KitKats today. I was delighted, as were some of the students. Those who had never experienced them before were a bit confused. While all agreed that the original was good, the … Continue reading
Taking Time for Tea
When I lived in Japan, one of my students was a rather revered master of the tea ceremony. On one occasion, my roommate and I were invited by her to participate in one. It is highly ritualistic and at times beautiful. It … Continue reading
