Hot Beverage?
I like my hot beverages–coffee and green tea. I’ll drink black tea and some of that other stuff, but I really prefer green. First thing in the morning and as an afternoon snack, however, coffee trumps it all–black in the AM and a sugary latte in the PM. Black decaf after a dinner out. It’s pretty routine–certain times of the year it’s like clockwork. That’s why I got such a chuckle out of Sheldon’s character on the show, Big Bang Theory, when he noted that it’s a “social custom” to offer someone an “hot beverage” when they are feeling down (at least that’s what I vaguely remember–I was laughing too hard at “social custom” and, of course, “hot beverage”). I heard that months ago and I still cackle out loud when I say to Chief, “Hot beverage?”
