CHAI DAY


Saturday's Chai Day.
Well everyday's chai day actually, it's my morning ritual. But Saturday's the day I share. One JUMBO cup for me and one normal cup for Ida.

Ida's the housekeeper. She comes by Monday-Saturday from 8am-12pm. I sometimes share during the week too. But it depends on my mood. More often than not I try to get up before 8am, make my chai, and ferret it back up to my room so that I don't feel guilty about not sharing. Terrible.

Ida get's a small cup because we can't communicate and I'm not sure if she likes it. It's possible that she dumps it out when I turn away and I hate to think of all that good chai wasted.

Second, I think very few people outside of the U.S. are into consuming such large amounts of beverage at one time.

Third, I am greedy when it comes to chai (maybe this should be #1).

Oh yeah, that little USB thing in the picture at the beginning is how I connect to the internet here. It's the modem. I click it in to my computer and log on. I press this button that says START and it keeps track of my time. I've got 65 hours each month.

I've got to know. On a more recent blog, you are taking pictures of Ida. Does this mean that you bonded over the chai and that you are giving her more now?-Kalli

More quantity. . .no. More regularity. . .yes. I think she appreciates the gesture. I really don't know. But I would think that the coolest thing for a maid would be to be waited on. No? xoxo
