THE Club Providing ing the best quality and style of footwear otwe for generaons. er • Orthotic Friendly • • Styles for Men, Women & Children • 565 Murphy Road, Sarnia • 519-383-0588 A cup of tea was more than just a drink to my immigrant parents. It was an elixir, a calm place in a storm, a blessing of nature. It was almost a religious experience. As with any process that smacked of ritual, there were iron clad rules. There were ways to make a good “cuppa” that I, as a kid, could not understand. First the water had to be fresh from the faucet and the kettle had to be emptied – no mixing of fresh water with stale water. After the kettle had reached a boil, the tea pot itself had to be rinsed with freshly boiled water after which spoonfuls of loose tea (tea bags were an invention of the devil) had to be put into the pot - one spoonful for each person plus another for the pot. Milk and sugar were then added to one’s cup. During World War II tea was scarce and sugar was rationed, so careful consideration had to be made of the supply of these ingredients. Sometimes my mother entrusted me Tea, and ME to put a kettle on and when I did, if not watched, I ignored the “fresh water” dictum and no one was the wiser, although I never told anyone of my short cut. The tea tasted the same! That “boil only fresh water” and the amount of tea to be added to the pot piqued my curiosity. If they could not tell I had heated water that was already in the kettle, would they be able to detect any difference if I also included some gently used tea leaves left from the last brewing should I manage to be entrusted with the entire process. I did it and they could not. As I suspected, no one was the wiser. So much for the quasi-religious rituals.

Leyshon, London from Daytripping July-Aug 2011 Part of the mystique of tea drinking was the barbaric idea of serving tea to someone in bed – as though that were a kindness. My father who worked shifts would arise very early and thoughtfully (?) deliver a cup of tea to the bedside of my mother, wake her up, then leave for work. What sadist thought that one up? Sugar was another conundrum during the war. My father would drink at minimum four cups of tea a day and liked to have three teaspoons of sugar in each cup – a not insubstantial amount day in day out. My mother made copious amounts of jam each fall using fresh fruit, which we devoured completely each year. BIG BOX PRICES. SMALL STORE SERVICE. 110 S. Mitton • 519-344-7557 • alsvacandsew.ca Jam, of course, requires a lot of sugar. Thus came a conflict over the rationed and scarce sugar. My mother partially solved this by accident. She was about to throw out a cup with a flaw in it – the bottom of the inside of the cup was rough – probably due to some incompleteness in finishing. In any event, it was rough enough that my father, stirring his tea, felt the same gritty response to his spoon that undissolved sugar created. Thus, my mother would put one teaspoonful of sugar into his cup before serving, and he would stir and sip contentedly just as though the tea had been laced with three spoonfuls. We had sufficient sugar for plenty of jam making. Yes, there was a lot of mumbo jumbo about making a good cup of tea. Today I drink tea made in the microwave oven and with a, gasp, tea bag. I swear I hear someone turning over in some distant place. WE MAKE Beautiful Smiles 50 CELEBRATING YEARS OF MAKING DENTURES!
