True sweet tea is made by adding the sugar when the tea is still warm,
so that it dissolves completely. I've seen some folks add cups, yes
plural, to a pitcher of tea. I call tea that sweet Tea syrup, mainly
because I find it way too sweet. Some folks do like it though, and if

Sweet tea is popular in the midwest (Kansas City area), altho not

Heather and wallflower are lovely too, and very easy to care for. The
purple heather that you find in the PacNWet blooms in the spring and
fall. Plant it in peat moss, see that it's watered once a weekand feed it

cloverlike flower
I believe that old Sears catalogs are available various places and other large
