Illustration Friday: Tea

Hot beverages are a big part of life, particularly in the chilly months, but they can also be a great source of conflict, as seen in the recent Hot Bevvy Olympics, pictured above.

This year, a new Gold Medalist emerged. As you can see from the illustration above, Tea has taken my number 1 spot as favourite hot drink. Coffee, last year's favourite, is sulking and is in denial (he is the crudimentary coffee bean, #2). Rounding off these Bevvy Olympians is Hot Chocolate, who is this year's poster child for belligerent. A false sense of security was given to Hot Chocolate when he won year after year in childhood. But when something stronger was needed, he was cast aside with He-mans and Garbage Pail Kids cards. But we still love you, Hot Chocolate...you just have to sit at the kid's table.
