Biblioblogs Blog of the Month
The NT Gateway blog has the privilege this month of a special feature on Biblioblogs.com:
You are right to pine for "a decent cup of tea (which should be made in a pot with boiling water, not in a cup and not with luke warm water; it is one of the most remarkable facts about America that no one knows how to make tea)". We've been introduced to the joys of tea, properly made. But after living in the UK for a couple of months, I could say in return, "it is one of the most remarkable facts about the UK that no one knows how to make coffee"! :-)
I quite agree that tea should be made in a pot.
