Pronunciation: tee/toe

Sentence: 'Time to teatoe' Jenny said to herself. This was one of the few times this week she would try to invisibly gumshoe her way to the staff room to enjoy a cup of tea by herself and wallow in the solitude and calmness of the vacated kitchen. Teatoeing was a huge challenge and risk, but if she got by her twenty-two co-workers, the tea and the time alone would help her overcome her protaskination and contemplate the highly emotional connuboil she encountered earlier in the week.

Etymology: TEATOE - verb - from TEA + TIPTOE (to move, or go with caution, or stealth)
