eldritchhobbit: (HP/Geek Pride)
Soon I'll be off on Trip #2. But first, a few notes:

* From The Guardian: "J.K. Rowling Announces New Novel - For Adults."

* Remember those Sherlock-inspired Adagio teas I mentioned earlier? Since my older niece and nephew gave me a wonderful new teapot for Christmas, I decided I'd give a couple a try. I got Watson and Lestrade, which arrived freakishly quickly. I'll admit that I don't have the most sophisticated palate for tea in the world (I'm more of a coffee snob by nature and experience), but in case you're interested, my amateur "reviews" are below the cut.
