Very formal. My English teacher would be proud. Pass the crumpets, please. Would you like more chilled beverage?

Oh, this is a wonderful tea room. Please, Susan, may I have some more tea? Here are the cookies that I brought. This is a very pleasant place. It is so much fun to type like this.

Oh, I didn't even notice, Miss Clair.  I can never pay attention to my pinky that well in such lovely rooms.  With the gold and red walls and the nice soft plush chairs.  It is oh, so lovely.

I hope that this thread comes to the very first page.

May I please have a glass of ice water with a lemon in it? Thank you.

These rose-painted tea cups are simply darling, Susan. May I ask where you got them? Meadow, your cookies are delicious. Muffin, can you please pass the jasmine tea?

Perhaps I could have a little honey in my tea? Thank you. This is perfectly lovely.

Allison, dear, I must say I couldn't agree more. I simply must get a set like this. And egg-salad sandwiches! With lettuce and green onion and pepper? How did you know my favorite?

I must say, I enjoy the atmosphere. I find it most refreshing after a long day, and I encourage this endeavour. A plate of sugar cookies at table 4, please.

Whatever do you mean, asketh the question of age to a lady?! Anywat art thou enjoyeth our humble abode, the Tea Room? Thou not wanteth a toppence worth of suger? Pray tell, where art the privy?But hark, what horrors through yonder window breaks! It is a troll, blocking the sun! What a saucy and most disagreable foe! The troll bringeth forth bad grammer!

O.O....*drops tea on lap* Oh no! Allow me

to clean that up. *continues to give Adina

strange looks until she attacks me with

silverware* Did I mention this is a lovely

tea room, Susan? ;D

Oh my! How delightful, my dears. This is simply delicious! My, the tea set is quite lovely! I do love the jasmine tea, but I really do prefer a lightly brewed earl grey with a half a lump of sugar. Its just delightful to have such civil conversations!!

The only bad grammar I see, Adina, is your own. Is that what you were referring to, perhaps? If not, please forgive me. I do not intend to offend you. And forgive me, but how is this a 'humble abode'? 'Tis more like a splendid palace, to me! I only wish there were more food and beverages available here for a vegan who despises the taste of tea.

Oh, Ima, I forgot all about the vegan cookies that I made. Theirs extra dark chocolate-chip cookies with no milk. And their is also plain and raisin. If you don't like any of those kinds, I will happily make a kind you like. I have also brought some Chai tea. You mix it with soy milk and honey. It is different from most tea. Their is also some vegan cheese. Wonderful, better than non-vegan cheese, in my opinion. Pass the peppermint tea, please. Thank you.

Oh, I forgot, if you don't eat honey, then I have some Agave nectar instead. Agave nectar is a lot like honey, except it's sweeter. This peppermint tea is perfect, just the way I like it. Oh, I didn't even notice it was gone. May I have some more, please. Actually, I will try the jasmine tea. Thank you. It taste wonderful! Oops, I forgot all about my pinky finger. I always forget to raise it up. I am so clumsy.
