how to brew good tea
Recipe for green tea? (I bought the green tea bags but dont know how to make it?)?

Heyy guys! i recently bought the green tea bags they are from tetley.I was wondering how to make green tea?
LIke i have heard that you take a 1 cup water which has to be warm enough and let the tea brew in it. I did that and it tasted bitter and awful, as long as i heard it tastes good?

Any suggestion to make one guys??

Thanks for all your help. Much Appreciated.

Either use a teapot or a mug.
Pour boiling water from the kettle into the pot or mug, then put in the tea bag and leave for a couple of minutes until it has brewed.
If you don’t use a kettle, put the teabag in a mug of water and microwave until it’s boiled. Be careful of a staple on the teabag.
It sounds like you made it right! Probably you just don’t like the taste of green tea! You could sweeten it with honey, or buy a flavoured herbal tea, there are many in shops such as lemon and ginger or red berry.

Has anybody discovered the recipe for the elixir of life?

The other day, Algebrand and I were bemoaning the fact that we were both decidedly middle aged-and grumpy to boot!. I said to Algebrand: ‘there is nothing we can do about it so you might as well accept the fact (case closed, I thought).

‘Actually you are wrong’, Algebrand said, (with a feverish mad-scientist look in his goaty eyes), ‘I was looking through the ‘Boys Own’ annual from 1936, and I think I have found a recipe for eternal life’. With little more ado (accept for a hop and a jump) Algebrand proceeded to ladle out a spoonful of the foul and miasmic brew that he had been boiling on the kitchen hob.

Before I had a chance to remonstrate with him, Algebrand had swallowed the lot. ‘That was good’, Algebrand said, before turning green and scaly. ‘How do I look’, said Alge? ‘Like a prince in waiting’, I replied. ‘Ribbit’, said Alge, ‘ribbit…ribbit…

Nicely written story. Yes, the elixir of “long” life exists. Our civilisation of today has lost the recipe, but it did exist. It sill exist today but it is occulted by the better “science” of pills.
A Japanese elderly lady was 114 years old the other day. She might have known something about it. I do.
But yet nobody guessed I am an Enchantress.

Are Wisconsin/Minnesota/Dakotas/Nebraska/Iowa worth visiting for a first time trip to USA?

Whilst most foreigners would want to head to New England-New York/Florida/California, for some reason I have this strange desire to tour around Wisconsin/Minnesota/Nebraska/N&S Dakota/Iowa. But I don’t have a driving licence. Is it still possible to travel extensively around these states, including small towns, by say local bus, trains ect. What do these states have to offer, I’m interested in a tour around Millers Brewery in Milwaukee, is this a good day out?

It is difficult, but not impossible, to get around the Midwest without a car. You will likely take either buses (Greyhound or Jefferson Stages) or long-distance trains (Amtrak). Even the buses don’t go to many truly small towns, though, and the bus stops are often at truck stops along the interstate highways, rather than in the town centers. You may have to walk (or hitchhike) quite a distance to get to the places you want to see. Also bus fares are not cheap, and your traveling companions may not be people you’d necessarily want to meet. If you have plenty of time, you may find it easier to take the train for short distances. While Amtrak is notorious for almost always running late, it will take you right to the middle of many small towns.

As for what there is to see, most visitors are surprised by how scenic the Midwestern landscape is. Wisconsin and Iowa are mostly rolling hills. Minnesota and Nebraska are flatter. The Dakotas are very flat in the east and mountainous in the west. Much of Minnesota and Wisconsin are heavily forested, while the other states are mostly covered with farmland. There are some very scenic small towns, particularly along the Mississippi River and in nearby regions of Wisconsin and Iowa. (I grew up in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, which is a lovely old town you can get to easily by train or bus.) The cities also have a lot to offer. Minneapolis would be the largest city in the region you are asking about, and it has lots of interesting museums and the type of nightlife you’d expect in a major metropolitan area. I personally don’t care a lot for Milwaukee, which is an old industrial city. Others do like it, though. The brewery is interesting, though I like the Anheuser Busch brewery in St. Louis (also close to the general area you mention) better.
