It’s the first rainy day we’ve had in months. There’s just something about rainy days that always puts me in the mood for a cup of tea. It reminds me of when I lived in England and tea was a sacrosanct ritual. Tea was a part of my daily routine. I had tea and a piece of Nutella toast for breakfast, tea at lunch, tea with sandwiches while I wrote my papers in the afternoon and tea when I needed something relaxing before bed.
