It's definitely worth reading. Wasn't exactly my cup of tea though.

 

No. Yours was the orange spice tea, but if you prefer something different, I have oolong, green, or ginger.

Nothing read before the start of this thread counts, right?

Correct. Otherwise I'd have many many more points :D

Keep a good coming-of-age book handy to counteract it. I recommend To Kill a Mockingbird.

Actually the canister of tea I have sitting in my room right now is a chai mate. When it runs out I'll probably spend a bit extra for a nice white tea.

Tea gives you kidney stones.  Beware.

According to my five minutes of Googling it is mostly iced tea that contributes to that.

So do spinach, chocolate, rhubarb and nuts. :(

I would think that you would have to eat an ungodly amount of any of those things to be at a medically significant risk of kidney stones though.

 

I do love rhubarb, but it is expensive.

I finished The Half Blood Prince around the 9th, and I'm almost done with The Deathly Hallows.

I can tolerate ungodly amounts of spinach.  :eat:  I just don't get it enough.
