Morning! I share your love affair with Earl Grey - so much so that I literally put a mention about it in the acknowledgements of my dissertation, along with the people and cats who were there for me too all those years. Granted, I put a lot more half & half than you do...I am extravagant about that because I want it to taste like a dessert. I used to drink at least 4 cups a day...now we've sort of switched to coffee most mornings and then the afternoon is for tea. I'll also drink vanilla tea or English Breakfast on occasion, just to keep it real. But the Earl...true love always! I have a tea pot in stainless steel that belonged to my grandma. I love using it so I think of her :-) Cheers!
