I like English Breakfast tea. I like making a pot of it when I start work on something, so that not only do I have caffeine with milk and sugar handy, but I also have to get up every so often to refill my cup. This is enough of a break to rest my hands and keep my butt from going numb, but not enough to break my concentration.

However, I have an unfortunate habit of forgetting how much tea we have. Which means that on occasion I'll pick up a box of English Breakfast tea without remembering that we already have some at home.

As a result, I have enough English Breakfast tea for several heart attacks' worth of actual English Breakfasts.

Anyone for a fried slice?

I love how the British omit identifiable characteristics from their names of food. "Fried slice" - of what? It's also a bad sign that one such non-description is spotted dick, which I can only assume is less offensive than an actual list of ingredients would be.
