I set my tea on the hearth while I reloaded my stove...

...and it appears that I got lots of good vitamins and minerals when I was drinking the rest of it.

You should take that somewhere and get them read by a qualified medium.

Teabags... there are zero tea leaf chunks in the photo.

All those chunks are "other".

You can't be to careful. With omens.

I'm voting unidentified crud then.

That's a perfect example of why I add a little alcohol to all my drinks. You just can't take chances lol.

Someone took a sip while you were tending the stove didn't like it spit it back in the cup simple lol.

When somebody spits pine needles into your cup, that is someone to keep an eye on.

I'll ask my wife if it was her.

Stop looking at the bottom of cups you are drinking from. No good can come of it.

It's fairly tempting to look when you are wondering how you got pine needles in your teeth.

 

[Squisher]

If your wood still has the needles on it I think you need to season it a bit more.

 

[Blazing]

Man I need to get my eyes checked! I didn't click on the picture but it's decent size all be it on my phone. I swear I didn't even see the pine needle lol. Not trying to derail this but speaking of cups has anyone noticed that the Ozark trail cups at Walmart are the same thing as yeti cups?

Pine is like the gin free way to make your drink taste like a lumberyard.

Pine needles add vitamin C, your stove is looking out for your overall health the best it knows.

I often find cactus thorns in my beverage of choice.

On purpose?? I may need to try that.

I added that as a poll choice, but it has a long way to go before it catches unidentified crud.

You poor thing, drinking kerosene. Can't you get good Kentucky bourbon out there?

I have my tea with a side of coffee.

 

[firefighterjake]

I eschew coffee and tea . . . not that I'm anti-caffeine . . . I just haven't grown up. Some day maybe I'll become an adult and start drinking big boy drinks. For now it's mostly water and an occasional soda.

Yeah, you just saved yourself from having to buy a charcoal filter!
