No tea

[louiselux]

I just drank a can of red bull cola as a substitute for tea, because there's no milk. It's not working. I need tea.

The reason there's no milk is that I just spent my last money-- the money I was going to use to buy milk-- on a giant envelope, which the post office lady made me pay for in actual cash, even though I was paying for some other things with my card. I wanted to say 'but I need this money for milk, so I can have a cup of tea' but I did not. I submissively handed over my milk money.

WHY?

Hee! Yeah, I understand sweet tea is a big thing in the south, though I never knew whether or not in included milk. I'm from southern California, and while most people don't put milk in their tea (if you order tea in a restaurant, they never offer you milk for it, either) when I make tea at home I almost always put milk in it. I just put honey in herbals teas, but my favorite black tea I always put milk and sugar in.

It's funny, the more I talk about it with people the more I realize that milk in tea is a really divisive thing! People are either aghast at contaminating tea with milk, or shocked that anyone wouldn't put milk in tea. XD
