Good morning!! It is quite chilly here today! It was 41 degrees when I got to work. Brrr! But the crisp, cool air is quite refreshing compared to the humid, hot summers we get here. Today is my last day of work for the week, and I'm only working 3 hours today so that is quite exciting. I am very happy to be getting two days off from work and class. Although, I don't get two days off of doing work for class. Lame. So anyway, tea time!
Tea: Organic STASH chai black & green tea
Like?: Green Tea chai? Delish!!!
Where to buy?: I want to say we bought this at Safeway but I can't quite remember. You can always go online!
Grade: A-
I don't really love too many chai teas. Except for green tea chai. It is probably my favorite way to have chai tea. This is a delicious tea. Chai's are not my favorite tea to begin with but mix it with the green tea and I'm good to go! I like that the chai flavor isn't too bold in this tea. I enjoy the green tea flavor that stays after you have taken a sip. This isn't my favorite brand of chai green tea however. I think I prefer Good Earth's combination a little better. But this is still good.
And for dinner...I don't actually know what we're having but something from the crock pot.
I'm not going to write again until Monday so I am wishing you all a very Happy Thanksgiving and enjoy your break!

November 19 2010
Well obviously I have to start off by saying Harry Potter was fantastic! So much better than the last one (thank God!). More action and more drama. So good. Ahh definitely going to be anticipating the FINAL installment of HP this July. It will be a bittersweet end for sure. We got in around 3am last night and woke up around 7:50am. So almost 5 hours of sleep, not bad. I'm feeling it though. And I'm extremely uncomfortable from sitting on the cold hard ground for 2 and a half hours then int he uncomfortable movie chairs for 4 hours. But worth it nonetheless.
On to tea!
Tea: STASH Premium Double Spice Chai Black Tea
Like?: This is a delicious tea for sure. Very robust.
Where to buy?: Grocery stories, STASH is between $3.50-$4.50 a box. And very worth the money. Very good quality tea.
Grade: A
Nick's dad pointed out an article in the Mercury news about a week ago. And it was all about chai. The columnist decided to rate different chais to find out which was the best. And guess which made the top? Why the very chai we are drinking this morning. Here is the article if you are interested:

So of course you know it's a good chai when out of all the chais available, this one made number one. Although it is highly subjective. This is the strongest chai tea I have had. It has a very strong cinnamon and clove taste. Which is why Nick loves this tea, he LOVES cloves. It is a nice blend. Strong in terms of the spices, but it is a nice tea on a tired morning. The cinnamon and clove flavors definitely awaken your taste buds! So overall, I definitely recommend this tea if you are a chai lover. You won't be disappointed.
So along with the excitement of Harry Potter, yesterday was mine and Nick's very good friend Nick's birthday. There are a lot of Nick's in my life. So tonight we are going to celebrate his birthday in downtown San Jose. So I think we're going to Gordon Biersch and I don't quite know what we are going to eat there...but we'll figure something out.
This is a very busy weekend of robotics competitions, apartment hunting, dentist appointments, hockey, and the most anticipated football game (besides the Superbowl) for any Patriots fan (vs. the Colts, GO PATS). So it will be a busy and filled weekend, hopefully fun. So have a good weekend everyone! See you Monday for tea!
