When I was young I used to have really milky tea. People used to say "do you want any tea with that milk?". However now I'm older I do appreciate a nice strong tea, what a Brit would call "tea with a spot of milk".
I was warned by other teachers that I'd regret it, and I do. One said, "over here, you're the King of English. Back home, you're [#$%*!]." I forgot his exact words, but "you're #$%*!" was implied. I like having a house and land, and I hate crowds, so I might be better off here. But the job will never be that high-respect/low-pressure lifestyle I enjoyed in HK, where one in every seven days I'm at Pacific Coffee listening to the White Album, having chai tea and chips, and writing bits of my novel after I'm done correcting papers.Convince me not to leave as well, Sidekick. I have no plans to, but I feel like I'll regret it if I do it in the future.
Ginger tea is cool. It's cool because I said so. If you don't think that's a reason, take it up with Reaver.By the way, I tried milk tea, but it made me do a spit-take. I do like some kind of ginger tea au lait thing I found here. I drink it almost everyday. So I guess I do like milk tea, as long as it's a flavor I like.

Bigelow apple cinnamon? That's a decent brand, and they used to sell a flavor called Fruit and Almond, or something with almond anyway. It had the best taste and smell of all the Bigelow herbal flavors.I wish I could have that life. (sigh)
Anyway, this thread has me back on my herbal tea kick. I'm drinking apple cinnamon right now. Cheap stuff, but I don't care as long as it's good.
