A silly story about herbs.
Three TG ladies, each a different ethnicity as is usual in stories like this, went to a tea shop to order their favorite source of phytoestrogens.
The first introduced herself to their waitress and said, “I’m Shannon, as Irish as Lucky Charms and love a tea that reminds me of the green hills covered in shamrocks. Red Clover for me.”
The second one said, “A Nubian princess like me, LaWanda, doesn’t let anyone or anything in her that isn’t black. Black cohosh for me.”
The third one, a spicy Latina, preferred to sing her order. “Dong Quai for me, Argentina.”

...but not tried all the teas
If you had drunk Black Cohosh you would have grown nice lumps in all the right places. It's full of female hormones.
Mind you, the Fennel Seed tea I'm drinking is almost as good...

Good to see a new posting from you (no matter how brief).
thanks
I figured I'd take inspriation where I could get it, and maybe that would kickstart my muse.
Here's hoping my next posting isn't so brief!

Don't Wait for me Argentina. I don't even remember the last time I even heard that, let alone remember what it is from.
Or is it the madonna dont cry for me Argentina?
'Don't Cry For Me, Argentina'
'Don't Cry For Me, Argentina' is from the original Evita, 1978.
Good Groaner
Thanks for the good groan. I haven't had one for a while. Heh.
And kudos.

If you don't like coarse jokes about tea READ NO FURTHER>>>>YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! IF YOU ARE OFFENDED IT'S YOUR OWN FAULT
To keep this topical;
An Aussie is visiting London for the Olympics and pops into a posh tea house.
Pushing back his Akubra he asks the snooty waiter for a pot of tea.
"Certainly Sir. We have three kinds of tea. Which would you prefer?
We have Prince Philip tea, which is 75% body and 25% aroma, or we have Prince Charles tea, which is 75% aroma and 25% body or we have Lady Catherine tea, which is 50/50 and very very popular."
"That's a coincidence," says the Aussie, a little pissed off at the condescension of the waiter. "In Australia we also have three kinds of tea. We have F. A. R. tea, which is 75% aroma and 25% body; we have S .H. I. tea, which is 75% body and 25% aroma and we have C. U. N. tea, which is 50/50 and very very popular."
Don't say I didn't warn you,
Joanne
