new tea cup!

Yay, I was introduced to Dim Sum this afternoon, and while walking around china town afterward, I bought more Ja Wei Xiao Yao San and a new tea cup.

My new tea cup has a slogan called "Ten Ways to Good Health" on it, and it seems like very good advice:

-Less alcohol, more tea
-Less meat, more vegetables
-Less salt, more vinegar
-Less sugar, more fruit
-Less eating, more chewing
-Less words, more action
-Less greed, more giving
-Less worry, more sleep
-Less driving, more walking
-Less anger, more laughter

Definitely words to live by, and I think I do pretty well with a lot of the "mores" like tea, veggies, sleep, and laughter; I just need to work on actually having less of many of the "lesses" like alcohol, meat, sugar, worry, and anger.

It's lovely, but the 6th one awakens my inner grammarian.

Well, to be fair it is a translation of the Chinese.
