Annie,
I am not sure how I found my way to your blog tonight but it is so cool!
I just had to comment on your Sweet Tea training video. Sweet Tea is truly worth the time to teach! Generations of Southerners have invested in it’s perfection.
You represented the south well.
I have but one correction….It DOES matter that Tetley is used vs Lipton. If you don’t believe me just ask that hubby to compare the two!!
Next video maybe!
At the risk of plagiarizing…could I link to this post with my own Sweet Tea comments?
Check me out and let me know!
Bless you and your ministry!! Young women need you!!
Pat

waffle house pot: affirmative.
(sorry for my tardiness on the commenting)

want to know a little secret to cleaning said waffle house coffee pot? (aka “side work”)
if my memory is serving me right…it was summer of 2003 after all…
pour in a couple spoonfulls of salt, a couple lemon wedges, and some ice. shake around for a minute or 2, to get that pot nice and clean. rinse and you’re good to go.
…and that one’s for free.

Sorry, no sugar for me. No lemon, either. I like my tea PLAIN as can be!

Can you please drive down the little ways to my house and make me some? Because, well, I’ve tried. And, well, it doesn’t turn out so great. DESPITE my Alabama familial roots. I know. Pleaseandthankyou.

leonard’s aunt really liked sweet tea. she would take a glass of delicious, properly prepared sweet tea and add four packets of sweet n’ low to it. I’m so glad that you’re spreading the tea gospel to your less knowledgable friends. Hey – I think I’m going to see you soon – if I can ever get out of this airport.

I was waiting for that pitcher to shatter when you poured water into it that was boiling only 5 minutes prior. I thought, man, this is gonna be the best video EVER.

That was the cutest video! You cracked me UP!

My Granny was from southern Georgia. And Granny made suh-weeeeet tea. One time, my older cousin was babysitting me, and my mom left instructions for us to make a gallon of tea. Including adding a respectable (for Missouri) 3/4 cup of sugar. Well, um, we thought she said 3 or 4 cups of sugar…and oh my, we had us some Sweet Granny Tea! I don’t think my Granny actually put that much sugar in her tea. But my husband puts 1 1/4 cups in ours, and I am pretty sure Granny’s was sweeter than that.

Cuz she was suuuuuuthern.

When we take our youth (Here from CA-NA-DA) Stateside for mission trips, they are always shocked by the iced tea. We’ve got the mix, we don’t usually do suntea, etc.

Invariably a kid will order iced tea from a restaurant and nearly spew it all over the table in front of them.

“This isn’t iced tea! This… this is tea… that’s iced!”

Serious.
