louiseluxI 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?

Date: 2009-02-26 01:55 pm (UTC)You sparked some a tea-related debate here. I'm now really wanting to try tea with tapioca pearls. In the UK it's really more common to drink black tea with milk than not, although some people do. When someone makes tea for someone they've not met before, it's always 'do you take milk and sugar?'
