Chai ho jaye :)))
For me, drinking tea or chai, has a lot associated to it… It is not just a beverage… It symbolises a lot of things in my life…
All through the years, I have come to associate Chai with quality time spent with family every morning and evening, discussing everything under the sun… having that hot cup of tea in that counter next to our class in Nirma… rushing down in breaks to have a hot cuppa chai – we used to call it SP (Special Chai) in that small kitli stall, next to Great Lakes in South Mada street… pondering over life, indulging in intense discussions about society, relationships, and even jobs… with some close friends… 
Chai to me, means a feeling of happiness, togetherness – a feeling of soothing calmness!
I have known a lot of people who love drinking Chai… some passionately want only Chai, while for some anything will do – Chai ya coffee… I belong to the first half… and I still remember some of those friends and moments shared with them, everytime I have chai
At the same time, I am not addicted to tea… Its not like my day will not start without a cup of tea… I just like having tea with people who like having tea Its an occassion and a celebration for me
It turns into a moment to cherish with a cuppa chai in my hands
So, what say? Chai ho jaye?
The morning cup of tea boots up my body for the whole day! The evening one is just for the heck of it
Hahahhaa
Its so rejuvenating, isnt it? 
i am not a tea person… i like coffee or milk
U r just like my hubby!!! Ufffff!!
Why ufff???
M trying to convert him and its turning out sooooooooooo tough!
Oh yes! Chai time used to be a time for the family
Even now when I go home, we all have tea together – I love it!
Here, sadly, we never seem to have the time for a peaceful cup of tea other than at weekends
I sooooooooooooo agree!!! Tea time with family is my most fav time of the day
Simply love it 
It feels so relaxed to just be sitting around and sipping tea… just general bakar 
) Just love it

After marriage, I dont have tea at all… coz my hubby doesnt have it and i dont feel like having it alone
Lovely header pic, btw! I love your headers!
Thanks Smitha
Oh.. beautiful!
A cup of tea means many many many things to me
My university life is encircled with the tea…. I pass many times in our tea-stalls… with some other boys.. full of lives… thoughts, ideas… gossips.. my entertainment…..
Quiet people like me in campus, has found my way to be live in zeal… through the tea… chai makes me feel good….
It means many things to me… really…..

Yes,Nova,for me too tea is associated with quality time with family and friends.Having chai in the evenings with some snacks prepared by my nani or my mom used to be a norm in my house.I cherish those moments of togetherness.
Here as well,my husband and I have our morning tea together without fail and make the most of the quality time spent.
Heheheh sure mohtarma
I know what you mean! I m making most of those times in Ahmedabad these days. Once I return to Singapore again, quality tea times will be a thing of the past!
Off lately I have started liking tea to coffee
HAve you seen the latest Red Label ad on TV… “bhaisaheb tatoo banwa rahe hain”… Eshu is so scared of that ad… he hides his face in my lap when that ad comes up… funny na? otherwises he only watches ads on TV… and some of them are his absolute favourite
Ahaaa!! Welcome to our group of tea lovers
Hahahahhaa good to know he likes ads, which is not surprising since children have such a short attention spans… ads suit them the best
I m sure he must be loving daag ache hain waale ads
I love them 
Oh he absolutely loves that ad… he gets that ear to ear smile whenever that ad comes… next favourite is Pears ad and also the complain ad
bilkul! i am a maha chai lover myself!
hahahahhaha
khoob jamega rang jab mil baithenge 3 yaar: aap, main aur CHAI
I prefer coffee over tea any time .. But I guess if coffee is not available, chai will do for me ..
Drinking tea/coffee with family members and discussing whole lot of issues/experiences/views is the most awesome thing .. I just love it ..
I don’t like tea, not even iced tea. I have tasted it only 5-6 times in my life, that too out of courtesy! But I know and understand about what you mean about chatting over tea. I do that over coffee and I too am addicted to neither.
Awwww!! I know! Some people just cant bear the taste! For me, its the same with coffee… I cant tolerate the smell!
I neither have coffee nor tea
But i can give u company
That sounds good to me
chai chai chai…
chai wala..
garam naram chai…
chai chai..
as a kid i was told if I will drink tea i will become dark… !!
my mom’s relatives look at tea drinkers as poor people… !! the rich drink milk they made be believe… but no amount of fooling kept me away… and finally my love affair with tea started in 10th standard… !!!!!
on a misty morning or on a cold night… on a dry noon or in office… nothing beats Chai…. and Chai time chats !!!!!!
Lolzz!!! I suppose this is the reason why my mom-in-law hates Tea… and my husband has never tasted one… and doesnt intend to, either
Chai is the best
It indeed is !!!
I so love chai. flavored ones that too. Cardomom, ginger, masala chai..oh what bliss.
I almost am an addict. This week I am on coffee. Just to prove to myself that I am no an addict u know
Oooooooooohhh!! I love Masala chai and also how can I forget, the Malaysian chai, which they actually make out of Milkmaid!! Its called Teh Tarik
Good luck to you on the addiction proving
i love coffee…but would have tea any day!
I was brought up on hot filter coffee n I retain my love for it. But a good adrak ki chai is always welcome too
Wowwwwwwww!! I love Adrak ki chai, Meira
