Hello everybody! I'm new to the site and figured I'd open a topic to chat about anything really. Easy starting topic: Do you drink coffee or tea? If so, what kind do you like?

Hello New Members

My name is Sarah B   and I would also like to formally, Welcome you to Susan's Place!

I see my fellow team mates Lori and Danielle have already welcomed all of you and she has provided a wealth of information for you.

I will be going up the road for a couple of days so please place your orders and I will get them as a treat for you in coming to Susan's place.  Please don't go away, I promise I will be back with your orders.

Once you feel comfortable here, it would be appreciated if you add a little bit more about yourself in the Introductions Forum, of course.  I would appreciate it very much as, I'm always interested in learning something new.

In addition members of Susan's will more than likely will discuss problems or issues that are similar to yours as most of us have experienced these as well.

Take care and have a wonderful day

Once again, Welcome to Susan's Place!

tea in the UK... makes sense...
the british have interesting tea rituals, but they all seem to take so much work
like, I don't want to break out two different kettles every time I want some milk in my tea.

Do people really have a kettle for milk? That must be a deception.

Tea's not bad, but for every given way of making it you could make something better with the same amount of effort. Might as well skip the caffeine addiction and make some hot chocolate.

well first i get the good stuff, there's a place near to me that makes their own blends and they do a v good earl grey
i wake the pot up with a little hot water, swish it around then pour it out
then i pour a bit of water over the leaves, then let them sit for a second. i usually drink this first steep as it is rather than throw it away
then yeah make fill the pot up once the leaves have rested for a sec. leave it for idk, however long feels right
serve with lemon not milk!

respectfully disagree, both tea and coffee taste great and nicer than hot chocolate imo
but also caffeine is nice
also i think i have some feeling here of 'well if i am going to take cross sex hormones the ship has already sailed' when it comes to worrying about the substances i put into my body

I'm about the cheap stuff. Fancy hot chocolate just tastes like dark chocolate, and if I wanted that I'd just grab a bar at the grocery store. Gotta be Swiss Miss or the equivalent bargain brands that probably don't even have any actual cacao in them.

The whole point of putting milk in your hot drinks is that it cools them down to a drinkable temperature without having to wait forever...

microwaving milk is a sin, I believe
at least to the church of england
it heats up unevenly and rarely gets to the right temp
therefore they developed the tools to get around it (typical)

I've never really felt the milk get unevenly heated but maybe it is worse, I've just never tried it in the kettle.

For me, it's Starbucks coffee. The best caffinated beverage. I even ask for extra cream packets and the staff is so friendly and more than willing to oblige.

One time I asked for cream packets and they gave me three. I said, "Wow, three for free!" and the nice friendly Starbucks worker laughed and said, "I'm going to call you 3-for-free!".

Now the staff greets me with "hey it's 3-for-free!" and ALWAYS give me three packets. It's such a fun and cool atmosphere at my local Starbucks cafè, I go there at least 3 times a week for morning coffee or a large iced coffee with milk instead of cream, 1-2 times for breakfast on the weekend, and maybe once in the evening when I'm in a rush but want a great coffee that is affordable, fast, and can match my daily caffeine needs.

I even drink my coffee in the middle of a hot summer afternoon, it's delicious! What a great cafè.

I worked at Starbucks for a few years (for surgery reasons) and I always loved giving my favorite customers fun names! It's really rare that people who get coffee from Starbucks are nice and treat us (the baristas) like people. Besides, "three-for-free?" is really fun, I'm sure they put in a little extra effort when they make your coffee.

have you ever done that thing where you wanna see a part of a show or video again so you rewind, but then miss it again because you stop paying attention again right before the part you're trying to see again?
i just did that like 3 times

we don't really get iced tea over here. you can buy bottles of it but i think its not really what you get in NA
i am actually hoping to visit NA soon so maybe i will try iced tea over there and see if its similar or not

anyway it is against my sensibilities to drink cold tea i think
feels like some sort of cultural vandalism as an English lass for me to let tea go cold

240 is really impressive! What routine have you been doing? I've been looking at getting into squats!
I lift free weights, legs only, three days a week and squeeze in abs in between days. I do three sets of 8 to 10 reps of squats, hip thrusts, calf raises, and weighted roman chair. I increase weight and start at 8 reps, then I increase one rep each successive day until I reach 10 then increase weight.

i have been meaning to start working out again as i have become sort of feeble and rubbish
i went for a big skate the other day, skated out of my city and to the next town over
it was fun took about 4 hours
but by the time i got to the end i could barely walk :')
and for days my legs have been so hurty and stiff. overdid it i guess

was not aware of how much strength i'd lost tbh
need to start doing squats too
