Increased Tea Consumption

Thanks to the Lilly/Hanako route, I've seen a spike in my tea (and chess) consumption. Anyone else noticed this? :D

And, thanks to the many lessons learned, my wife and I have started taking time out of our evenings to enjoy each others company via tea and chess. It's definitely gonna be something we continue doing!

Those of you with significant others, I highly suggest this as a means of spending quality time with them :)

I need to start playing more Chess with my girlfriend. We've already had an increased interest in tea because we play the Professor Layton games, and this has increased my appetite for tea.

I don't have a significant other, but I do have a little sister. Ever since Lily's Arc, I've been drink a ton more tea. Especially French Vanilla Black Tea.

Our Tea Party's are awesome! I even went out and got us a better pot for tea brewing and some pretty pricey tea. She love the bonding time we have and I get to have some French Vanilla Black Tea and reminisce on Lily.

I agree I have also seen my tea consumption increase. Unfortunately so far it's only been tea bags from the quad cafeteria.

That's awesome! I love the stories about how this experience has brought people together! Enjoy that time with your sister while you can :)

I've seen an increased consumption in my wine intake. Well, it's still limited to certain days, but I'm not drinking shots of it anymore.

I should go back to the shots. That last glass just made me too groggy.

Having been raised by a Southern belle, I've long a had a preference for sweet iced tea over hot tea or coffee. However, lately when I brew up a pot, I've been sneaking one bag of french vanilla black tea in with the normal tea bags - the result is quite refreshing, and doesn't require Yuuko-level sweetening, which is better for me in the long run anyway. So, I guess you could say that's a change.

Didn't increase my tea consumption, but gave me a bit more respect for it.

Haha I know what you mean. My grandparents travelled from the Southern states to California during the dustbowl, taking their traditions along with them. :D And now my brother lives in Texas, and that's pretty much the staple drink there. When you ask for tea, that usually means 1/4 sugar and 3/4 tea ;)

Somewhat related: I started eating pizza with a fork and knife after "finishing" this game ^^

I think the only reason I'm not drinking more tea is because I dont like it *rolleyes*
I giggle at how much this game effects people :D

^This. However i've always had a thing for tea, such as milk tea, green tea, jasmine tea.

I've never had French Vanilla Tea before though and i'm very curious about it :D On my next shopping trip, i'll look for some haha.
Playing chess while having tea is something i'll definately keep in mind though when I eventually (i.e. NEVER) get a girlfriend :D

Sheesh you guys are so pessimistic! You guys will eventually find a chess partner, even if you don't think so now ;)
