"Dinner has ended long ago, but still we are sitting at the table, drinking our fifth or seventh cup of tea; and I am thinking that Russians can sit at a supper table while saying brilliant or ridiculous things longer than seems physically possible; further, this trait may explain Russia's famous susceptibility to unhealthy foreign ideas, with the post-mealtime tea-drinking providing the opportunity for contagion; and, further yet, I am wondering whether tea perhaps has been a more dangerous beverage to the Russian peace of mind, over all, than vodka."-Ian Frazier, ""Travels in Siberia--I," New Yorker, Aug. 3, 2009

Mmmm....tea! My favorite is to blend Lapsang Souchong with Ceylon.

I really tell you guys: this stuff really works.buy Viagra Online, At least for me, I had no problem achieving or keeping my erection. The difference was so significant, that I was indeed astonished. Before that, I was never able to have sex like that.
Aimless chatting after dinner over tea (or libations) is always pretty good.
Guerilla Chef--I love blending Ceylon with other flavors.
