In polite society, a drink of tea should always be served in a cup and saucer, preferably made of bone china, and never a mug. What does it say about me that I like a big mug of tea? Oh and the milk should always go in before the water.

Answer: Carrot

Carrots are normally orange but there are purple, black, yellow, white and red varieties available.

Answer: Pan

Pan is depicted as a god whose top half is a man and bottom half is a goat, although he does have the horns of a goat too, so maybe he is more goat than man. A Roman myth tells of Pan having a music competition with Apollo, with Pan playing his pipes and Apollo his lyre. I could tell the rest of the story but then you wouldn't read it for yourself.

Answer: Cheese

A cheese lover is called a turophile, from the Greek for cheese, "tyros" and loving, "philos". Cheese from cows, sheep and goats is common but it is also produced from the milk of animals such as reindeer, yak, horses, camels, alpacas, or if you have lots of money, donkey milk cheese from Serbia is one of the most expensive cheeses available.

Answer: Christmas

Christmas is a religious celebration celebrating the birth of Jesus, but is also celebrated culturally by many non Christians. The earliest record of Christmas being celebrated on December 25th is from the year 336.

Answer: Cake

All are different types of cake. Cupcakes are small single serving cakes, usually with icing on top, and angel cake is a popular UK cake consisting of three layers of sponge, one white, one yellow and one pink, with a layer of icing between each one. Fishcakes are a fish and potato patty, coated in breadcrumbs and delicious with chips while butterfly cakes are cupcakes with the top cut off, sliced in half and then stuck in the icing to resemble a butterfly's wings. Lava cake is a chocolate cake with a liquid chocolate centre and carrot cake dates back to the early 19th century when sweeteners or sugar were so expensive that people mixed carrots into the batter mix to sweeten the cake. Pancakes are made from eggs, milk and butter and are great served with cream or strawberries or lemon juice for breakfast, lunch, dinner, elevenses, supper or just as a snack between meals. Cheesecake is a beautiful creation consisting of a biscuit base topped with a mixture of cream cheese, eggs, sugar and flavouring (lemon please) with fresh fruit and whipped cream on top. Finally, Christmas cake is served at Christmas and is a very rich fruit cake, covered in marzipan and icing, with, if you're lucky a coin or two in it.
