I always made fun of people who had to have their morning coffee to function. I thought they were just joking or it was all in their head. Recently I have come to realize that if I dont have my morning tea I do not function properly either. Its not even about caffeine since I dont always drink a tea with caffeine in the mornings. I think its mostly about a routine and if mine gets broken then I am broken.
I actually prefer loose leaf teas and am lucky to have a few pretty amazing tea shops where I live. I think sometimes when you price loose tea you get kind of a sticker shock but if you were to dump out the little tea bags you purchase from the store I think would see that the price isnt too much higer if its higher at all. I am not really sure about black teas but I do know that I have yet to find an Earl Grey that is as beautiful or tasty as the one from Lexington Coffee and Tea. I love that with loose leaf teas you can steep them twice and it may be a weaker but still very good. Try that with your little bagged teas.
Sundays are the perfect time to look back on the past week and be thankful that I survived. I try to think about if I missed something that I need to add to the coming week, like reaching out to someone or rescheduling anything. I also like to plan my week ahead like our meals and any outings. Knowing which days I can fix something more complicated for dinner and which days I need to throw stuff in a crockpot. Tomorrow is going to be spent on the road dropping of my girl to her aunt for a little vacation before school starts back. I may not use the crockpot but you can bet I will want a 30 minute or less meal with an easy clean up.
Do you love Groupon? Thanks to Groupon we have tried lots of places to eat that we may not have tried without it. I got a great deal on the Newspaper, bought a few Christmas presents and other things. Yesterday I found a great deal on there for Redbox. Redbox is one of our favorite date night ideas. You can get a $20 ecard for $12 right now. The only thing is you have to reserve the movie online to use the ecard. I usually stop at a redbox on my way out of the store so I need to make sure I dont forget to use my ecard.
I hope everyone had a nice relaxing Sunday. Pat yourself on the back for surviving the past week. I hope that you have recharged your batteries and are ready for the week ahead. Right now all my family is either at a basketball game or visiting someone so I am going to try a new to whip new bed time lotion with magnesium in it. I will let you know how it turns out and whether everyone was on board or if they told me to stop with my witchcraft.
Lots of Love
