well, this thought keeps coming to my mind on and off… this time, when i went home in december, while visiting family friends, i would invariably be asked for tea… since i don’t drink it, i decline and then everyone laughs, jovially commenting that i’m still a kid… there is this unsaid tradition among bengali families that kids don’t drink tea…
i’ve sipped some my mom’s and cousin’s cup a million times but have never been able to appreciate the specialty in it… i enjoy coffee a lot LOT more…
maybe i should start drinking tea… most gossip and life stories are shared over a cup of tea… and i feel really really awkward about it… i’m the only not sipping along… and have kind of really lowered my diet… i don’t even get time to make coffee, and since we have a readymade tea in the morning…
i wonder if i should start drinking tea…

They say, we reply...
