This image was drawn by Sekra, and I have a sneaking suspicion she had a look right into my life because HELLO THIS IS ME. I even have that Batman t-shirt… but I lack the awesome haircut. I want short hair but I think I’d suck at pulling it off, I’m very much a ‘wake up and run a brush through it’ person when to comes to hair styles.
March has been insanely difficult and I can’t wait for it to be over. Some of my relatives have been in hospital. Moving house is ridiculously complicated and tiring. We’ve been understaffed at work. I’m facing a lot of biiig changes I need to make to my writing WIP, and I just want to run the other way and hide in a corner because large-scale revisions are hard. AND I’VE RUN OUT OF MILK FOR TEA.
But on the bright side: I had an awesome dinner party with my friends last night, I saw The Hunger Games, and I’m incredibly lucky and have some of the best friends this shy geek could ever ask for.
I just can’t wait for things to get back in order so I can relax. In the meantime, I’m going to go outside and get some fresh air, sunshine, and milk so I can make so much tea.
Tea is essential to the creative process!
I certainly hope April is a calmer time for you :)
If you had no milk for tea, would you drink it black? I prefer a dash of milk in my tea (and I mean a trace amount that would barely register on a DNA test), but at work they only have coffee creamer, so I drink my tea black. That’s fine, because I like it strong anyway. But the last thing I would do is not have tea because there’s no milk. Please! :)
I’m very partial to my black teas with milk, and I won’t have it warm without it — pure black is just too bitter for me, though I wish I could like it because I’d appreciate tea in general more that way.
But if I don’t have milk,m there’s a lot of teas I can drink black (chamomile, fruit teas, peaced ice tea, I’ve even got a mint chocolate tea about). But milky black tea is my go-to ‘any day, any time’ drink so I’m always a bit lost without it.
What is creamer? This has always confused me. I assumed it was either milk or something thicker (cream? half ‘n half? full fat milk?) so I’m confused why coffee creamer means you can’t have it in your tea.
More often than not, “creamer” is essentially powered milk. Yikes! Plaghhhghghhg!! I wouldn’t even put creamer in coffee! :)
Mint chocolate tea? I’m not really into “flavo(u)red” teas, but I might go for that! :D
