Geeking out over Sherlock - in public

Guys - I just made a spectacle of myself in public. Seriously.

Since I came back from Edinburgh I've been aware that it is time to Get Serious About Tea. The teabags at work produce something, well, vile, in comparison to real tea. So when I was out today and I passed an Adagio tea store, I went in. I picked out a little tea-for-one set to have at work and smelled a bunch of tea. Then I was checking out and to my right on the counter saw -

I nearly began hyperventilating. I then proceeded to represent our fandom by gasping out something like - Oh my god, they're slashing the tea. This is slash tea! This is so awesome! I'm going to need to take a lot of pictures now and then buy all of these.

The girl who was helping me was pleased that I was so happy, but she was a little confused by How Happy I was.

Loose leaf tea, I presume?

Yes, tea with things contained in the mix other than bits of unidentifiable shredded possibly-tea-leaves. Since I've been walking so much recently and it's been so hot I've had to institute iced-tea breaks and I was completely astonished when this nice little cafe produced a green iced tea which tasted of something - actual something rather than more like nothing which is what I normally expect from iced tea. This reminded me of my tea resolution.
