May I add a leaf to your tree? The leaf that I would like to add
is all about "Brewing", and "Presenting". The best part of Tea 
is in brewing it. Brewing tea is an art. Allowing the tea leaves
to soak in the correct temperature by placing a special cover 
that used to be called, a "Teacosy" brings out the natural taste and 
and aroma. Now comes the second part, called "Presentation". 
An aesthetic sense is derived from using a delicate well 
designed Tea Pot, and beautiful tea cups and saucers. We must
not forget to keep the Tea Pot always covered by the Tea Cosy,
because the brewing continues while tea is served.
This is what I learned from an eloquent gentleman called "Lukes"
He was a friend of the family, and I was just eight years of
age, when I heard this remarkable description regarding the
brewing and presenting Tea.
"Young man, it is this very unique formula" he said, "that
caring wise mother's adopt in helping develop their infants
good character." Loving, caring, teaching as well as being
a model of nobility is like covering the Tea Pot with a good 
Tea Cosy, while the brewing continues till the child reaches
maturity. Then comes the presentation, when finally the mother
presents her love, care and hard labor to the world.
