I really don't like what they did to the first one, adding all sorts of things that just aren't there in the Hobbit book. I really love the book, so rather than sitting there hating, I'm not going to watch the rest at all.

Thanks! *burns throat in rush to get some in tea in her stomach*
Somewhere I must have British blood in me: I do believe tea solves everything :P

Heh, no surprise there, with you being an Elf Lord and such.
That said, diamond cutters can take years to decide on the perfect cut of a specific stone. High craft takes time. Quote:

In defense of the British, I'd say that some teas are quite nice with a little milk.
Some other teas, though, not so nice. Earl Grey tea isn't very nice with milk - I don't know whether even the British add milk to Earl Grey tea.

To each their own, when it comes to tea, I suppose.
Me, I don't like the flowery or fruit teas, but Earl Grey, I like. |

I like tea with milk and sugar. It's one of my guilty pleasures...

Earl Grey is very controversial
I usually don't like it, but just came across a brand that I just LOVE! My favorite is Constant Comment, a stupidly-named but delicious tea.

Well, why do you think they've invented sugar?
