"While There Is Tea, There Is Hope"*

William Ewart Gladstone attributed these powers to tea: "If you are cold, tea will warm you; if you are too heated, it will cool you; if you are depressed, it will cheer you; if you are excited, it will calm you." Fyodor Dostoyevsky wrote in Notes from Underground, "I say let the world go to hell, but I should always have my tea."

Did you know that January is National Hot Tea Month? It is, and in honor of the month-long celebration of the benefits of drinking tea, Examiner.com has an article about Hudson's very own tea emporium, Verdigris Tea & Chocolate Bar: "Sip a cup of tea in January in celebration of National Hot Tea Month."
