When I was in the UK I really saw how much they love tea over there and instantly became hooked. They drink it all throughout the day even more than Americans drink coffee!! I love a good cuppa Yorkshire with some milk☕️
I prefer tea as well. My high school friends once tricked me into eating a chocolate covered coffee bean and almost lost my friendship. But my husband over the course of months acclimated me to the smell and then the occasional sip…I can drink it now if I really need the caffeine boost and tea isn’t enough. But only with a healthy dose of creamer. 😂. Well-written and entertaining, as always!
As a Brit, the idea of anyone hurling tea anywhere, makes me recoil in visceral HORROR. It hurts me soul.
However, I'm writing this whilst thinking about my next trip to Starbucks. I live for Pumpkin Spice and Eggnog Lattes (I may be cast out of England if I ever admit that).
For me, tea was always the go-to but my mother did the same - she drank coffee like it was liquid gold. She'd press red talons around a mug and react like it was liquid gold.
This was really lovely to read, and it brought back a lot of memories. It's funny how a drink or a scent can do that to us.
😂 SO true. I took a DNA test from genealogy out of curiosity and ON MY DNA test—"Unlikely to drink coffee, probably prefers tea.” Not kidding! Made my whole year. Even my DNA rejects it 😂
Oooooh the family secrets that came out of My Ancestry and 23&Me results 😂😭🫠 my mother and father didn't tell us so many things!! It's funny how it just tells you about yourself though!!
I did it through ancestry.com and mostly because I guess I just wanted to know where I came from. My biological father and I aren't close. He comes and goes when he pleases. But most of it is going. So I was curious who the rest of the family was. ❤️

😂 "healthy dose of creamer" AKA: Cream, Sugar, dash of coffee 😅
have you ever tried Mate?
thats equates to coffee and tea in South America
I have not!! Now I'm incredibly curious!
yes! try it. in Buenos Aires , like Paris’ Latin twin flame, the experience is just mate instead of coffee. or instead of “fancy a cuppa”
it's - “te preparo mate”

Thank you for writing it 🖤
Thanks for reading it! I love how she lives in England and prefers coffee, and I live in the United States and prefer tea 😂. Day officially made!
😂😂😂 Well, it wouldn't pay for us to confirm to our stereotypes 😂😂
