Stuff I found on Wikipedia yesterday, 11/11/11:
In the United Kingdom, Ireland and some Commonwealth realms, elevenses is a snack that is similar to afternoon tea but eaten in the morning. In Australia and New Zealand, elevenses are called morning tea or smoko. In the United States, elevenses refers to the antiquated custom of the late-morning whiskey break.
