Er Rational musings #250
Tea has come a long way.
Used to be poured n kept in variety of beautiful kettles with suitable hood-cover of thick cloth, to keep it warm, in households. Served in variety of china glass porcelain cups of various sizes n shapes.
~ Elegant and classy.
Used to be stored in variety of thermos. To be served hot. Handy. Buy now, pay later, kinda. Preapre now, drink later.
~ Safe n 'sound'.
Used to be served in a steel 'vaati' in many small time big business tea shops. A big vaati over a small one, filled with hot tea n carried upside down, thus preventing it from spilling over. Easy to make the tea 1 by 2.
~ Great innovation of (aamchi) Mumbai.
Used to be served in small glasses, plastic cups n paper cups. Parcel (!) of hot tea, is given in plastic bags.
~ Way of life.
Tea, by any other name, would be still loved by me, all n sundry!
~ As it is.
Tea drinking is a passion. A divine experience. Refreshing. Anywhere. Anytime. Anyhow. Any which way!
Love you.
