Over Afternoon Tea

Tea is not only a drink but a ritual over which people have been relaxing, talking, and catching up on each other's lives for centuries. This blog is intended to serve as a virtual cup of tea, helping me keep in touch with friends and family in my physical absence.

The sincerest form of flattery is, after all, not imitation but attention.
I think this explains why many of my professors in college liked me. Particularly it explains why the ones I disliked/distrusted seemed to like me. The more uncomfortable I am the politer I get.
It does not, however, explain professors' amiability toward my husband, unless dozing is a form of paying attention. There I am still puzzled.
