I am really into etymology. I came across Quadragenarian before. It's easy to guess if you know "qua-" is related to "four" and "~genarian" for generation. Words are fun!
It was the Indians that brought the Teh tarik or teh sarbat to our country decades ago. I love the way they pulled the tea with the 2 containers to cool the tea.
Great photo and post for the Q Day! Your photos get better every day!
