Am very jealous of high tea.
I can afford it about once a year. Hence the birthday treat. I will also be replenishing my supplies of F&M's Royal Blend, which is the best tea in the entire universe, and which I also manage to make last a year.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Happy Birthday Seska!!! Oooh, you even got Shir to brief de-lurk. Hope the studies are going well Shir.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Happy birthday, Seska! What was it like, back in the Jurassic?
P.-C., congrats on your successful cilantro-hating date!

Ah, those carefree teen years before the meteor hit.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Happy Birthday, Seska!!! I highly approve of your celebration plans.
Yay, P-C!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Happy birthday, Seska!
When my family visited London when I was in high school, we had tea at the Dorchester. That was nice, even though the waitress seemed to be just barely holding back from laughing when my mother kept asking how to eat everything. (It's a sandwich. You pick it up with your hands and eat it.)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Happy birthday, Seska! I love the high tea at Fornum & Mason. It just makes you feel so civilised.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Yay P-C!
Happy birthday, Seska. Sounds like a lovely time.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Happy birthday, Seska!
I'm glad you had a good time on your date, P-C!

Happy Birthday, Seska! I hope I look as good as you at 103!
Way to go, P-C! May you find you agree on other such important things as olive spread on a muffaletta, yes or no, and Oxford comma, yes or no. Could make or break the relationship.
