Not a coffee drinker but the above is funny. Just switch to tea and I am good.

I never disliked tea, but I was never a regular tea drinker until I moved to the UK. Now I drink at least 2 cups per day and often 3. I start with English Breakfast tea, follow it up with afternoon tea, and then I drink a cup of bedtime tea at night. It's very pleasant.
 
Ok Deez, what do you recommend in the tea world? Not a big fan of Earl Grey. We normally drink Celestial Seasonings teas. I like the Lemon Infused variety. You can drink it hot or cold.

Hard to find in grocery stores but we get it when going through Boulder or online.
 
Four years of 12 meals a week with mashed potatoes for at least eight of those meals and all there was to drink was water, tea, or milk, it was decades before I had either tea or mashed potatoes.

Personally, I don't mind Early Grey, but I know many aren't fans. As for what I drink, most of it is pretty basic stuff. This is what I have at breakfast. Pretty sure they sell it in the US. It's one of the more expensive grocery store teas but not bad.

These are the teas I most often drink in the afternoon. They're also the most expensive teas I drink. I order them online.

This is what I drink at night. They sell it at the grocery stores - pretty cheap but tasty and calming at night.

Why Mr D

Not that there is anything wrong with that.:beertoast:

It's easier to "go native" here than it was in Germany, and it's because of the openness of the British people and obviously the lack of language barrier. I can mostly understand what people are saying, so it's easier to pick up the customs. I already say "queue" instead of "line." I refer to mail as the "post" now. I buy "petrol" not "gas." And the people are just nicer and more approachable, so I'm more receptive to it. They like to chat a lot more than Germans did.

I got a real feel for it when I went to Aldi in the UK. In Germany, Aldi employees have a permanent scowl and more grunt than talk. When I went to Aldi over here, the chick at the checkout smiled at me and said, "good afternoon, Love. Did you find everything you were looking for?" The difference is like night and day.

I'll let you do the beer thread. Before my concussion, I liked Tennant's from Scotland and Boston Lager here in the U.S.

I remember having Tennent's in Scotland. It was pretty good stuff. As for Boston Lager (I assume you're referring to Sam Adams), it's available here, but it's expensive. I have bought it a few times though.
 
Yes, Sam Adams. For Scotch it was Glenlivet and Glen Grant. Sorry, did not mean to hijack the thread. I will, at some point, start a tea thread.

To get this thread back on track, I present the Snow Monster.

@deez I asked you once if it’s true that Germans laugh. I mean what’s even funny to a German?
So how about the British. I mean, I know they have a good sense of humor but do they show those teeth when they do it? What is up with that? I’m betting it’s the tea and ****** food, yeah?
