Cameron is back from a couple yeas in Washington State, so along with Sean & Trevor  we are puddling around in the low – mid 80’s today .. 28C in So. Cal.

Great weather, Camaraderie; Friday BBQ

Ghamnip, Persimmon Tea

Robert returns (3 weeks in Vietnam, 1 week Korea) bearing gifts, Persimmon Tea from Korea. If the nature of the packaging is a testament to the treasures within ! As you can see it took some persuading to have this vault give up its booty..

The Korean name is:  ghamnip cha (감잎차). As an Infused Beverage (as opposed to a Tea) “Persimmon Tea” unfortunately will not make my list, just too many alternatives.  Looks like Robert will be able to enjoy this for a few additional days.
