Le Souverain is in his escape artist era and I only just wrangled him back inside. Please be mindful of open doors while I figure out how to prevent six pounds of audacity and non-Newtonian fluid from escaping a harness.

aw man i skipped that day in ms daisy's etiquette buffet for kids

England sounds so scary.

it's a little scary but now i can make tea and balance like, anything on my head.

Do you have a strong stance on making tea in the microwave?

i KNOW you're expecting a Britfit rn but ACTually i hate tea and microwaves are faster so go for it

Oh cool. I got official permission.

She barely remembers England. Her opinion doesn't count.

Do NOT speak to my MEMORY did you even have to go to etiquette

Alas, curtsying was strictly a hazing ritual at my boarding school.

god kids are so weird
anyway it's easy all you gotta do is
1) lower your chin but maintain eye contact with the person you’re curtsying for if your skirt is long, hold it between your forefingers and thumbs
2)Place your right foot 10–20 cm behind and to the left of your left foot. Then slowly bend your knees and lower yourself about 10–15 cm
3) Hold that position for about 1 second then slowly and gracefully straighten your knees and return to a standing posture,WITH your back straight.

I'll remember that the next time I have to greet the King at the Royal Caledonian Ball.

mum's proobably already doing next year's application email if you want in...

I can think of few things I'd hate more than trying to meet her standards for a royal meeting. Better to leave them to fawn and preen without my interference.

all of that plus in a kilt???? torture

Hot water is hot water.

The microwave lacks precision. Good tea requires a uniform temperature, and a microwave always results in different temperatures at the top and bottom of your mug. It's basic physics.

Thanks for the physics lesson, Dr. Waldinger, but since I do actually own a spoon I think I can solve this problem by stirring the water.

You saying this only reveals that you don't bother aiming for the ideal temperature for your tea.

No, but I also buy it in bulk at Walmart, so there was never really any hope for me anyway.

Are you about to claim that you don't taste a difference between the Walmart bulk brand and good tea?

Not enough of one to justify the price difference.
