Good morning all. It's a rainy Tuesday today. I had a hard time falling asleep last night (possibly because I am so very excited for Nick and I to have our own place again soon!) so I was very groggy waking up this morning and so on... But nonetheless, today is our Thanksgiving Potluck at work today so I am curious what food I can actually eat. We will see, but for now on to tea!
Tea: Trader Joe's Peppermint Tea (No Caffeine)
Like?: Absolutely love peppermint tea!
Where to buy?: Trader Joe's of course! It's pretty cheap too, maybe $2.99 a box? But I'm not totally sure
Grade: A
You can't go wrong with a peppermint tea. It's one of my favorite kinds of tea. I like it for any mood and any time of day. Peppermint is a strong tea so if you don't like strong tea either don't drink it or steep it for a short period of time. We probably steep our tea (in a pot) for about 7-10 minutes. And it is soo delicious! This tea leaves a very minty taste in your mouth for quite a while after you've taken a sip. That's one thing I love about this tea, it stays with you. Even though there isn't any caffeine in this tea I still think it packs a bold flavor that is sure to awaken your taste buds. So enjoy!
Thanksgiving week and I still have class, boo! Annie Chun's tonight! Have a good Tuesday everyone!

November 9 2010
It's a chilly 46 degrees outside!! But I like the cool weather :)
Tea: STASH Premium coconut mango oolong tea
Like?: I'm still trying to decide...
Where to buy: I got it for free from my mother-in-law but I'm assuming you can buy it at your local Safeway (or other grocery store); STASH teas are typically on the pricier side, around $3.99-$4.99
Grade: B-
I love coconut and I love mango. BUT I tend not to like fruity teas. For some reason I don't like to drink sweet tea. Hence the reason I always drink my tea without sugar. This tea smells like coconut and leaves you with a coconutty aftertaste so I am a little disappointed with the mango side. Where are you mango? I think the coconut taste overpowers the mango, so it's hard for me to get past that taste. Oh well!
Maybe we'll have something better tomorrow.
And for dinner...
I have class again tonight, so I think I will be putting together one of my Annie Chun's Vegan Teriyaki bowls ($1.99?) from Trader Joe's and taking that to class. I still haven't decided though.
Have a happy Tuesday!
