Caffeine..

Chai and Milk Coffee are way better than laundry, so they deserve their own post too.

In the morning, Carrie can usually be found in the kitchen making chai or coffee. This is due to the fact that she is up anyway because of the kids, so she might as well make something good to drink. She has amazing multi-tasking abilities…

We have caffeine every morning...and at our afternoon tea time, and the chai that is offered at every home we visit, at every village we go to...so we consume at least 3 cups a day...one day we had 3 tea times in one village over the course of 5 hours...fortunately, the cups are rather small...

The negative aspects:
1) it dehydrates you
2) it stains and rots your teeth
3) it gives me a sugar high and then I crash…sometime just before the afternoon tea-time

4) I’m addicted and get a headache if I don’t have chai…or maybe the headache was because of my sinus infection…or being dehydrated…

The positive aspects of Chai and Milk Coffee

1) It’s so yummy

2) It’s good for dipping parle-g crackers in

3) Carrie makes really good chai and coffee and yummy deserts too with chocolate and peanutbutter :)

4) Everywhere we go, they offer us chai and it would be rude to refuse

5) Everyone else is drinking it

6) Like I said, I’m addicted…
