I finally opened my "present" from Ben today... haha (Thanks, Ben!). It's kind of a funny story really, about our GO-FAR (Aceh) team and our obsessive love affair with Teh Botol.
Teh Botol is literally 'bottled tea'; or rather, sugared water that kind of tastes and looks like tea. We drank ridiculous amounts of it when we were in Meulaboh, and in fact we've occassionally cleaned out the eatery's entire stock of Teh Botol, like so:
So last week, about a month after we got back to Singapore, Ben was off on assignment but had some presents for us. We examined the packages curiously - then someone remarked that it sounded like it contained some sort of liquid. The immediate reaction was a comical look of shared understanding and a chorus of "It's Teh Botol!"
So, yeah. We're probably all going to frame the packet up or something. *LOL*
