Today I joined the "traditional Tea Ceremony" club. I had no idea that so much went into chillin' out and sippin on tea with your friends. I can't remember any of the special instructions right now - but the tea and cakes were deliciose. I wish I could take pictures of smells for all of you to share, that is really what I think was the best part of the experience; fresh tatami, earthy green tea, sweet mochi... hmmm.
