Stay Frosty
October 14th, 2008
Ni Hao! Last night I thought up a really cool thing to blog about. Really cool. I just wish I could remember what it was.
We saw the Terra Cotta Warriors. I’m enlarging my cultural experience. I’m reading _Three Cups of Tea_. The Baltis call tea the same as Mandarin: cha. My mother used to call it “tay”: “Would you like a cup of tay?” She was being quirky, but the British actually used to call it tay. Since her family tree is almost directly English back to the Dutch Purchase, it might have actually been handed down, mother to daughter.
