puellapaschalis Posted August 8, 2014 Author Share Posted August 8, 2014 Hi Sister! In a nutshell? I came back with an entrance date; it became clear I wasn't meant to enter; had to begin to learn how to deal with my brokenness; felt rejected by the Church; rejected the Church; got my backside into gear and into a Confessional again; and then, as they say, you pick yourself up and carry on as best you can :) In the meantime I became a teacher, which is just [b]hilarious[/b]. I should never be given charge of children or young people, I'm far too much of a bad influence :w00t: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

porziuncola Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 After. The order is 1) tea, 2) sugar, 3) milk. Else the sugar might not dissolve so well, and the previous point that you don't want to make it overly milky. I was told once that the proper English way was milk in first? He said, "milk in first, lest anyone think we were Irish." Lol. I asked him about it again and he said the milk should go in first, otherwise it scalds and changes the taste. He also said that gave rise to certain people being "M.I.F.s" meaning they're old fashioned and proper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilllabettt Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 http://youtu.be/1-8LbiVjmXc?t=1m27s Not sure what's going on with youtube embed. But anyway .... Margot from Fortnum and Mason says that milk "before" was originally the way, but later putting in "milk after" became the sign of proper fanciness cuz it indicated that you had better quality china which wouldn't crack if you just poured hot water into your cup.

brandelynmarie Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I always do it: tea, milk, sugar. Apparently, I'm doing it wrong :hehe: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnlySunshine Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I love Lady Grey with raw honey and stevia. When I make TeaVana Rooibos & MateVana, stevia is enough. Same with black tea. English Breakfast (and similiar stuff like Irish Breakfast) call for both stevia AND milk. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihil Obstat Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Am I the only one here who will only drink tea with no sugar and no milk? :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porziuncola Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Am I the only one here who will only drink tea with no sugar and no milk? :blink: I do sometimes, depending on the tea. Green tea or orange tea for example. Btw, I can't believe you still have the same signature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marigold Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 http://www.adagio.com/herbal/sour_apple.html Try Teavana :coffee: http://www.teavana.com/ Very expensive, but decadent, a little goes a long way... I mix Strawberry Cream with Slimful Chocolate Decadence to make a chocolate -covered strawberry. ;) :wave: HI Puella! MateVana is my favorite! It's mixed with cocoa and is DELIGHTFUL! ;) You fancy-pants people! You can get me some for my birthday :) I am fond of English Breakfast tea, steeped with green cardamom pods & a splash of milk, bit of sugar. Homemade chai! Tell you what IS good: put a couple of crushed cardamom pods in your French press. Cardamom coffee is wonnnderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Wednesday Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 (edited) Am I the only one here who will only drink tea with no sugar and no milk? :blink: I prefer fruity and herbal teas without sugar or milk. A good, well steeped standard English Breakfast/Earl Grey type tea, I like a little sugar and milk in it. My relationship with tea is complicated.
