Was it lime green, thats all they seem to have around here?'Our last lot of French guests rejected all our coffee making paraphenalia and brought their own teapot.'

I haven't a clue, I was merely informed of the teapot's existence when trying to demonstrate our range of coffee related paraphenalia. However funnily enough the coffee machine is lime green as are most things in the kitchen.Lesblancs wrote:Was it lime green, thats all they seem to have around here?'Our last lot of French guests rejected all our coffee making paraphenalia and brought their own teapot.'

Susan,
Joanna,I have never seen an electric kettle in an American household except my own and they are difficult to find in the stores.
As I am milk intolerant I drink a lot of tissanes (or, as the English call them, herbal teas). I agree with you that most taste like the sweepings from the bottoms of hedgerows. However, you should try Dr Stuarts - they are made from pharmacological grade herbs rather than food grade and are great. Second favourite is Fortnum & Mason.Susan wrote: However, French tastes seem to be changing and a lot more now drink tea (or the flavoured 'tissanes', IMHO yuk!).
