Stressful Art in a Stressful World
<p>The attached photo is of a tree farm growing Ali Shan Oolong Tea. Shan means mountain, but this farm is not on the mountain, don’t tell anyone. After more than a year of living in the heart of a city and only leaving to visit slightly smaller cities, it was nice to be out in the quiet, with the smell of a farm instead of traffic. I am sorry to say we did not sample the tea (but we did sample from a nearby dragonfruit crop!). I don’t drink as much tea as I would like, because in the mornings I want coffee, and in the evenings when I would drink tea I don’t want the caffeine. Decaf tea doesn’t taste as good and doesn’t seem to be commonly available here in Taipei. That said, a lovely alternative that I am deeply committed to now is to pour boiling water over a handful of fresh ginger slices.</p>
