Green Tea

Every once in a while when my colleagues return from an overseas trip for either work or play, they would lug with them a huge stock pile of food and snacks enough to feed everyone in the entire floor. The bunch of us greedy ones have taken to occasional tea time parties such as yam paste with ginkgo nuts and pumpkin as well as other types of biscuits from the premiums to the nostalgia. Such internal events really do help us maintain our sanity (or what’s left of it) amid the mountain of work we are used to receiving on a daily basis.

When Pau(line) got back from Japan a couple of weeks back, she fed us with a number of unique snacks from biscuits to sweet treats. Doing my daily rounds disturbing colleagues and searching for food like a scavenging pest, I chanced upon a number of differently flavoured Kit Kats in Pauline’s cubicle. Being the extremely shameless person that my colleagues have already gotten accustomed to, I opened a box of green tea Kit Kat and helped myself to a pack.

To be honest, I am always intrigued with the unique flavours of easily acquired products like Kit Kat from other countries. Japan is one such country famous for experimenting with a number of flavours with much success. I remembered back in 2007 when my ex-colleague Slave passed me a Pineapple flavoured Kit Kat. I was extremely elated and happily skipped back to my cubicle.

Yesterday, I passed the green tea flavoured Kit Kat to Lyn (my boo) in hopes of sharing it with her today. Problem is, I can’t find it. Hope we didn’t leave it in the cab on our way home…tsk.. .
