December 2 2010

Happy Thursday everyone! Good news! Nick and I got approved for the apartment we want to move to and are going to sign our lease soon. We'll be painting our new place in an attempt to make it more "homey." I'm quite excited :) So today is a good day. And a good day for tea too!

Tea: Market Pantry (Target) Black Tea
Like?: LOVE this tea.
Where to buy?: Target or Safeway
Grade: A+

I love black tea. Just plain black tea, no sugar, no milk, just the way it is. There's something so delicious about the bold flavor of black tea. It's one of my absolute favorites! I used to drink plain black tea every day in the form of iced tea. I never get sick of this taste. I don't know what it is about black tea that I love so much, but I do. I prefer to steep my tea for as long as possible because I like the strong flavor. Definitely recommend this tea!

For dinner tonight I am making homemade pumpkin dumplings with roasted vegetables. Never made dumplings before so it should be interesting!

Have a great day!

November 30 2010

Today is the last day of November. Does anyone else think November went by way too fast? Anyway, it's a good thing. Because it means I am almost done with my first semester of grad school and after finals I get about a month or so off of school...YES!! So excited for a break. No ice on the car this morning, but still about 42 degrees outside. I'm still not tired of the cold weather though. So now time for tea!

Tea: Red Rose (I think? I threw away the bag which had the label...) Canadian Black Tea
Like?: It's kind of a funky tasting tea but not bad.
Where to buy?: I got it from someone at my last job so I actually didn't buy it and I don't really know where you can get it.
Grade: C+

Even though this tea is two things I love 1) Black tea and 2) Canadian I am not really fond of it. I'm not sure why but it leaves a funky aftertaste. It doesn't taste all that great when you're drinking it either. I can't really identify what the taste reminds me of but it's not really a flavor I wish to have more of. I really don't have much else to say about this tea unfortunately. Oh well, you can't love them all!

I'm not sure what I'm having for dinner tonight, maybe Annie Chun or maybe something else...depends on my mood :)

Happy Tuesday!
