    I hardly take milk in tea anyway, but even if the tastes (between the real thing and Jacksons) are even vaguely similar, I cannot see myself liking Souchong tea. However if I do come accross the real thing I will happly give it another chance.

    Chinese teas should not be drunk with milk it really spoils the taste and some of them are a love/hate item. If you don't like them great more for me :D

    16 hours of lectures/week...it's new, it's fresh and crispy and so relaxing. :D

    Good luck, though, Enagonios, I've had my share of tests already. ;)

    All the warm food anywhere close to uni is either complete junk or overpriced junk which is still junk. You're probably better off having cakes with coffee. Or even bars. Or whatever.

    I know your pain. Chocolate bars and a can of Coke is a healthy option compared to the food I can get at work... :sick:

    Check your Companies Coming Cookies book, I got the recipe from there. Actually my son loves them. Adding all that air really brings out the flavour of the chocolate chips. :yum:

    I figured out where 8people fits in the alphabetical list of SP nicknames.

    My new mission (should I choose to accept it): finding out why the four core romances in BG2 are romancing my female(!) halforc(!!) without the component from EoU ( :confused: )

    Souchong and Pekoe are not types of tea, they are a way of grading the leaves.

    There are several main "types" of teas that have to do with how the leaves are prepared: white, green, oolong, black, pu-ehr and flavored.

    Within these types, the variety of plant and regions where the plants are grown make a big difference in the flavor (just like coffee), and there are so many different styles and blends of tea.

    Lapsang Souchong is a flavored tea where the large souchong-grade leaves are put over pine fires and smoked.

    Earl Grey is a flavored tea where bergamot oil is added as the flavoring.

    My favourite tea is the evening meal.

    I prefer coffee. Latte or cappucino.

    A friend of mine gave birth to a baby boy last week. I'm so happy for her and her husband. She had already had two miscarriages, so this little one is really especial for them.

    I'd tell you to say congrats, but it'd be weird.

    "A random guy on the net said congratulations!"

    Yup, weird.

    Undertaker, I shall follow you in this quest!
