“We’re not everyone’s cup of tea” is Southern Lady Code for “We are great friends and sometimes our overt love for each other and our shared history and current interests can be super annoying to people.”

In the Season 1 finale, Helen talks about the strong bond between her and her dearest friends and finds writing workshops enjoyable.
