Until its use declined in the nineteenth century, Indians of the southeastern United States were devoted to a caffeinated beverage commonly known as black drink. Brewed from the parched leaves of the yaupon holly (Ilex vomitoria), black drink was used socially and ceremonially. In certain ritual purification rites, Indians would regurgitate after drinking the tea. This study details botanical, clinical, spiritual, historical, and material aspects of black drink, including its importance not only to Native Americans, but also to many of their European-American contemporaries.

This is the path that runs through me, and for this reason it has not been possible to start anywhere else." Highly informed with a unique perspective, Black Tea chronicles the changing face of Russia.

Black Tea tells the story of a family. Seemingly perfect on the exterior, this Indian family bears burdens that transcend all forms of logic and reasoning. It tells of the conflict between a mother and a daughter, who are torn apart by their acceptance, or lack of it, in regards to their skin colors. In order to see her daughter happy, the mother goes to unspeakable extremes, even though they reveal her own hypocrisy. On the other side of this family is the ideal son... or so they think. What will happen when the love of the son's life is exactly what the mother has tried for so long to protect her family from? But, is she really somebody to be protected against, or is she simply a normal person rejected by a prejudiced society? And what will come of the mother and father, who, in the moment of truth, will have to make the toughest decision of their lives: should they affirm to society's beliefs or attempt to fight them even though it goes against everything they have been taught?

She's bold. He's sweet. Just add love and stir. Pauline loves entertaining thousands-especially the kids-with stunts and an open heart at game time and in community service as the only female mascot actor in men's major league hockey. After the Toronto Peregrines seize victory and the national cup, Pauline prepares for the best time of her thirty-year career. So when she's called home to train the new employee at her mother's tea shop while her mother recovers from surgery, cabin fever sets in faster than a slapshot. Todd can boil water...but that's it. After the curtain crashed down on his international ballet career, working at Claire's Tea Shop was his first opportunity at a new-and private-life. He's in the right place: even if Todd can't tell a Darjeeling from a Ceylon, Pauline can't tell a pirouette from a Baryshnikov. He has to succeed at this, or another failure will be on display for the world to see. But from the moment Pauline jumps onto the counter to save Todd from a horde of tea connoisseurs, steam rises between them, and Pauline and Todd find a special blend of love steeping into their hearts. Tea Shop for Two is the first instalment in Lori Wolf-Heffner's sweet romance series, Love on Belmont.
