Sweet tea

[easttenngator]

Working on the road and having people from above the Mason dixon line visit at our house I have come to understand that the housing market and Iraq are not this nations biggest problems. It is the lack of sweet tea and people that know how to make it.
McDonalds is not the answer this puts your sweet tea fedish in the hands of a huge Corpertation and can change the way they make it or do away with it at any time. So here it goes

1st you need tea bags to each there own but we use Lipton and you want to use 3 family size tea bags to a gallon of sweet tea

Next you need a small metal pot( I have one from Brazil that a man gave me to make Cuban coffee in about one quart in size) I have had mine for 4 years now the more you use it the better the tea will be

Boil your water is said pot and turn off heat add tea bags and let stoop( not sure if that is the right spelling for that word) if you forget about it dont worry tea wont go bad if there is not sugar in it.

HERE IS WHERE IS GETS TRICKY

Fla and the yankee State add 1 cup sugar to gallon of tea and water

Ga and Alabama add 1 and half cups of sugar to tea and water and O yeah most of Kentucky

Mississippi Texas Va WVa and South Carolina add 2 cups of sugar to you tea and water

LASTLY IF YOU LIVE IN THE MOUNTAIN TEEW North Ga and South west Va and the whole state of Tn and North Car ADD 2 1/2 TO 3 CUPS OF SUGAR ....to you water and tea if it pours easlily add more sugar


Hope this helps anyone on a sweet tea fix and wasnt sure How to cure it

thank you Poor...that is why I dont have my own place I dont use a garlic press either

is stoop the past tense of steep maybe???

[POORBOY]

Have several garlic presses. About all of them are kind of like the juicer I got the better half for christmas a few years ago. Had a bag of oranges hidden. Made us both a big glass of orange juice. Really proud, OJ was very good. Took the both of us half an hour to clean it up. Returned it to wally world the next day.

Learned most of what i know in the first grade.
Walked three blocks to school.
Grades 1 - 4 were in the front room. Grades 5 - 8 were in the back room.
High School was up stairs.

Kind of confused on the rest.

You stoop over to pick something up.
You set on the stoop at the bottom of the stairs.

And yes, i have been called stoopid!

Yep...my non grasp of english and spelling shows up way to much on here

Had friends come over to play pool.
Next day pitcher must have had a hole in it.
Could not find a leak but it was almost empty.
Made another gallon.
Put it in a new pitcher.
