Chocolate and Tea I can do at work.

Wine? The boss might not like that too much.

[buffyt]

Well, I think YOU win today for BEST POST EVER!

I’ll drink to that!

Those Ferro Rocher candies are mighty tasty. And champagne! And we drink tea by the gallon, all day every day, no sugar.

one of our cats, Siamese, is Champagne and Mink color.

Then WAIT and have a glass of wine after you get home!!!!!

Problem SOLVED!

[WayneS]

But I don’t NEED my brain at home. Do I?

I'm not much of a tea drinker so I compensate with double wine and chocolate.

There’s a brand of chocolate called Keiko. It’s a German brand posing as an oriental co. to appear Eastern and wise and all that nonsense, sort of like when Biden had his eyelids surgically pulled sideways to appear sage. One of their lines is called the Green Kiss. They have many products in that brand, including little squares, mignonettes, that are made with chocolate and green tea. They are so good, so different. They might be an ideal combination with some dessert wine - maybe a Moscato or a Riesling? I don’t know, I haven’t tried.

Here’s a good combination - Choxie truffles (Target’s brand) with a tawny port. So nice after dinner.

All of the Republicans in the next U.S. Senate, as well as all conservatives everywhere, will seriously need as much of these things as humanly possible in order to get through all of the profound “mess” that’s really coming this country’s way!

OK, V....I'll try it. I'm a Lindt/Ritter fan, with a Graham's 85 Port on special occasions. AM’s brace is always a breakfast tea; usually Lipton.

[Clintons Are White Trash]

Yes! Another vote for my Chocolate addiction :)

[BluH2o]

If wine increases brain performance I should send my resume to NASA ... they're always looking for a rocket scientist. ;^)

[marlon]

My recipe for brain power....Lindt 85% dark chocolate, a decent bottle of red and a some nice soothing tea the following morning. Ahh, I feel smarter already.

I’m still experimenting with steak, beer and coffee. I’ll let you know the results in a few more years.

Chocolate, Wine And Tea Improve Brain Performance

Wine and tea? Can't say. Chocolate? Clearly, not.

[Hyzenthlay]

Neat! Interestingly enough, this year I wound up with a habit of going to the library and getting a hot chocolate to do some last-minute review just before my exams, and now I feel like it might have been worth it!

However, I don’t do tea, and I’m still just a bit too young to be able to test out the wine part =P

Well, when you are, always remember: in moderation.

No matter how smart a person is, they will act like a dummy when drunk. ;)

[Daffynition]

Well yeah.

[CE2949BB]

Now that is a party! :D

Depends on whether you're married to an intelligent woman.

Mine speaks three languages.
Sometimes I don't know if whe's telling me she loves me or is cursing the day I was born. ;^)
