    Somebody broke my favorite tea mug recently.
    It was handmade, with little happy thoughts on it, held the perfect amount and kept the heat so well.
    Nothing has been the same since. :(:(:(

    I miss you mug.

    I don't drink tea, but I do like a cup of strong, sweet black coffee with either one of my homemade oatmeal and raisin cookies or a couple of squares of 70% cocoa dark chocolate.

    Why has nobody mentioned that you cant dip your biscuits into black tea, its just wrong!!!

    Hate black tea for the record, had to drink it on occasions where there was no milk left!

    Eat ginger Nuts daily, about 3, or 4, anything chocolaty (other than chocolate digestives) are just soo yumm..

    Yeah easily, I start work at 9:00 and by 10:30 I'd sometimes be on my 4th cup! I could live for a while without alcohol or sex but tea...no way!

    I do all the time! Best way to start the day if you ask me. As long as you're sure you'll be within easy reach of a toilet for the next few hours.

    Tea is the best :)

    You're not the only one. I've never drunk tea (or coffee for that matter) so don't know what it tastes like and have no interest in finding out.

    Anyone ever notice that bargain-priced chocolate chip cookies are usually absolutely delicious? I'm quite the fan of Tesco Value cookies. :)

    I like tea with crumpets... largely so I can say that I'm having tea and crumpets. Tea with a chocolate éclair is quite nice too.

    I hope I'm allowed post as I'm not a lady. To answer the question the missus and I have been enjoying Tesco Value Shortbread recently which is great value at just 59c per pack. It tastes just as nice as the more expensive brands.

    For me it is a nice mug of decaffinated earl grey and a yogurt or a greek salad with lots of mayo...sounds worse than it actually is...I drink 5-10 mugs a day :eek: (but do not eat with every mug).

    have you tried really nice sorts of tea? i'm not a big fan of Barrys but i love green and black teas, or Earl Grey, mmm

    I have tried all the herbal ones and didnt like them, I think i need to give normal tea another go tho and see if it lives up to the hype, its been a few years now so maybe iv changed :pac:

    I like tea with breakfast. I might only have one other cup of tea in the day.

    I would have a cup or two of coffee in work. Then mostly hippy tea at any other time. I like green tea at the moment.

    But generally no biscuits or anything necessary with them!

    According to my work mates I drink tea with my milk! Just don't like it too hot, so nice milky tea (apparently yuck to others!)

    Like rich tea's or fig rolls to to dip or eat with it!

    According to the OH: Barry's tea is 'blue shirts' tea or Fine Gale tea! And Lyons is Fianna Fail tea! Don't know where that comes from, but they all say that down there!
    I prefer Lyons anyway. :pac:
