What's your favorite kind of hot beverage in this weather?

Lovely icons. I especially like the River one - so ghostly.

My favourite hot drink in this weather is not to have a hot drink (it's almost summer, and the temperature's rising); though I do like tea. A nice tisane of lemon and honey :)

It was a new technique I was trying, and I like the way it worked out.

Do you have any tea in there, or is it just lemon juice and honey? I do that when I'm sick and wanting the vitamin C infusion.

How did you do it? Set opacity to 50%, or something else?

No actual tea in the lemon-honey thing. I recently learned that tealess tes are called tisanes; it's such a pretty word, people should use it more often!
I've also had some absolutely gorgeous jasmine "tea" made from rolled-up jasmine flowers.

I tend to drink tea at home, but if I'm out, coffee. Real hot chocolate, too.

(sorry if I haven't left any comments for your recent fic updates - been a bit out of it with uni work. But I loved them all, especially the new Switchback chapter)

Re opacity: I think so. The image of River facing the camera had a nice set of curved metal on the bank side, and when I lowered the opaticy on the top lawer (River facing away), it shone through and looked like an overlying light effect.

I totally understand about the lack of time to comment on things. Sometimes, I read fics and love them so much, but can't find any words that make sense other than "Yay! Loved it! Whee!" so I remain silent :)
