#### Drinks...and Food...and, well...Drinks!

But, non-alcoholic drinks (sorry to disappoint you lushes out there!)
Why not Tea? You can buy coffee, but not tea? You know, once in a while, I'd like to sit in front of my fireplace, put my feet up and have a nice, relaxing cuppa. Nothing fancy, English Breakfast or Earl Grey would do. But a cuppa tea would do a Glitchen good at the end of a long day of mining.
And, dammit, where's the celery?! Honest to Giants, how can one make a good stock without celery, fer Cosma's sake?

- @DD: Celery is part of the earthly trinity, along with carrots and onions.
  For that matter, I'd add turnips, beets and fennel.
  And I would allow cheese aged for a week to become parmesan reggiano.
  I would also make Szechuan Pepper (makes your lips numb) and Star Anise to the spice mix.
  I would also give glitchen bikes, trikes, and unicycles.
  And I would allow for the engineers to make jetpacks.
  I would also release clown noses to wardrobe, and allow for juggling as a gesture.
  But only if I'm elected Emperor of Ur.
  Which would put me on Xev's hitlist.
  And she scares me.
  No, yeah, guess I'll go hide in my spiderhole now.
