There are two cultural phenomenons I advocate every society adopt in order to make existence on Earth more tolerable. The first was presented to me in 2008 by the Spaniards and that is: siesta.
The second, I have always been aware of via media and contact with various Anglophones, but was not fully convinced of its splendor, until I had the chance to do so at Cafe Gray today, and that is high tea.
Thankfully no horrid date stories for this post. Today's event was all about meeting up with a sister from another mister, enjoying life, and having cheeky gossip sesh. We were with parents so a double tea set for two was ordered. The bite size mixes of savories and sweets that accompanied the warm smooth Darjeeling was enough to melt any trouble away. The view from the 49th floor might have helped with the cause to induce serenity as well.
As discussed over tea, this is something one should do with girl friends often enough to keep the crave, but not too often to spoil it. Some things are better left sacred.

Ham 'n cheese, Salmon chives and cream, egg, beef and pickles. All delicious little nibbles

| little curry puff, and the best scone that has ever landed on my taste buds |

Mango tartiness on white mousse, little meringues, a lemon tart made for the gods, and I fell asleep after that so I don't know what the rest are
