Speaking of tea, Texas Monthly has an article on the growing use of Yaupon Holly (Ilex vomitoria) tea, talking about a new Texas company called Cat Spring Tea that sells Yaupon Tea. I'd heard of this use for Yaupon Holly leaves before, and know that the Native American tribes have used it for a long time. Since I have a Yaupon Holly plant, I've used it for tea...not going to stop buying regular black tea at the stores, but it IS good tea! Free tea from a native plant!

I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. E. B.White
Integrity can never be taken. It can only be given, and I wasn't going to give it up to these people. Gary Mowad
