Tea: Christmas
Music: Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble, "Pride and Joy"
Time: Night.
I walked on some perfectly good jasmine tea tonight, and I didn't get in trouble.
The tea is an integral part of printmaker Heinrich Toh's exhibit at the Kansas City Artists Coalition. (It runs through Jan. 16, so go see it. No, I'm not explaining why I didn't get in trouble for stepping on the tea. Some things you have to check out for yourselves.)
The scent is still with me, in memory as much as in the physical sense.
I associate jasmine with the first time I discovered loose-leaf tea (I was eight) ... with the Hong Kong Restaurant (which no longer exists) in my hometown ... with an early spring visit to Arizona ... and now, with one of the many artists whose work enriches my current home city.
Not a bad set of associations, that ...
