On that note, i'll go make myself a cup of tea and read a book;)

hi, nice post. i feel similarly about cha myself. many a lonely and many a together moments with my loved ones have been spent with a cup of steaming darjeeling or dhaba chai in hand.
like your pics, beautifully composed.
you could have added some famous lines of your own as well ... some thing like :: all that you want to know of me //// is embedded in my pot of tea....

@me: oooh! thank you thank you :)
@mangoman: cha ia a very mango man drink. No wonder you like :). The current post on your blog gave me a heart attack. I wanted to leave my comments, but was offended too much (as was the post's intention) to write anything. So in the process didn't leave my footprints on your blog at all. Let the anger settle, i'll visit your space :)) and thank you :)
@choco: I'm curious to know. you a coffee or cha drinker. The mallu bit must be craving for coffee and the bong side must be asking for tea. no? or maybe you don;t have either! :D Thanks, girl!
@patty: here too? thank you :)))
@Gb: Lots of Mistry fans here!
@ rupz: first beer, then dinner and then a hot cuppa. ok?
Nope! I'm a tea-drinker! Rohit is a coffee drinker. I love green tea and lemon tea (no milk). I also our ordinary masala chai made with lemon grass. Amazing!
Like those sayings.
Yes Tea is something that has to be had in solitude.
There is nothing as refreshing as tea.
I noticed that all those 80+ ones are actually tea drinkers and they have their tea without milk and little sugar or no sugar.
There must be some secret to it.
Lovely pics!! You could use them as headers.... :)
Wow I LOVED these pics!!! Your photography is awesome m' dear! I say more, more, more!
I love love love the pics! You are such a talent! Is there anything you are not good at?
Awesome :-) Nice pics and perfect quotes to go with it!! I myself am not a cha-lover but a Coffee-maniac :-) But yeah, this quote is what I practise : 'Drink your tea (er, coffee) slowly and reverently'
Just my feelings ..Me a chai lover too.
