A collar tag for Kira that was ordered after he came home without his collar on. The postie found it in front of number 30 (we're 34) and gave it to Kayleigh the day after the tag was ordered. I guess Kira now has a backup tag.

Kayleigh got a Lazarus comic while I got a saturated (from the rain yesterday) bank statement.

Not today since the mail runs a bit later in the day, but yesterday I received some rich black Sumatran, hand picked, hand rolled tea.

Just enjoying my first cup. Very rich and strong! I'll have to adjust my recipe.
I am sort of new to Sumatran teas and I thought I was being careful with the quantity, using only three little balls of the tea in my pot. It exploded my infuser!

With the weather beginning to show some change, I have gone from iced American style red and black pekoe tea with some monarda mixed in, to hot exotics from far away lands, again.
I still have a few blends of eastern teas left from early this year, but this is the first "new" tea I have ordered this season.

What's honey-do? Is it an American thing?

I'm not sure if it's only an American thing, though it's commonly said, a honey-do list, which are generally task or errands given to a spouse or partner. As in, here's some things I'd like you to do honey.  :orly: I ordered a cord concealer kit for a cord that's been bugging me for a long time, but I wanted him to do it because I can't see straight and I would likely stick it crooked to the wall.  :dunno:

Cool, thanks for explaining. :)

We have a cord in the lounge room than runs across where we walk. I sure would like something to conceal it.
