Does your teapot drip after you pour?
 

No, not a euphemism, your teapot...

But, talk to your doctor if this gets you thinking metaphorically.

Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on your bedpost overnight?

"That isn't a bedpost, and that isn't chewing gum."

"Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on your bedpost overnight?"

And Clyde.

not sure actually

This thread made me go back and find the thread about recommended kettles and order one; I've been having a lot more tea working from home.

Me too! Except, I don't bother with dipping the tea bag in. I am just drinking hot water. It's actually very nice.

Weirdo

I drink hot water with lemon juice and honey more often than I drink tea. But there is a fair amount of lemon juice and honey in it.

I always add honey and sometimes lemon juice. Also I usually drink Earl Grey. So I seldom taste the actual tea over the honey and bergamot. Maybe I don't even like tea; I wouldn't know.

When we kids had colds in the throats or nose, Mom would fix us tea with milk and sugar; then we knew we were being cared for and about. And the tea brought some relief for a time.
