C'mon, let's resume this thread!

Three men are drinking tea. Each one puts an odd number of sugar cubes in his cup. In total, 12 cubes were put in the three cups. How did they do that?

Each men had one cup. And nobody else put sugar in their cups. Also, their cups didn't have holes or something nor did they swap the contents of the cups.

:idea:
Each man puts one sugar cube in his cup of tea. Then they all wait until the cubes have dissolved and then each man puts another three cubes in.

In that case each men would have put four cubes of sugar, which is not an odd number.
