I went to a tea tasting with Michelle, Mom and Shelby the other day at Goldfish Tea in Royal Oak.  Shelby was pretty excited that she was going to a tea party with REAL tea, lol.  We learned all about tea and the different types.  I also found out that you can make any tea caffeine free by steeping it for 30 seconds, dumping the water and then starting the process again.  Apparently the caffeine is the first thing to come out of the leaves during the steeping process.  I also learned, (thanks Michelle for this lesson), that Oolong Tea gives me a migraine.  Lesson learned and despite the funny name, I’ll be keeping my distance from the good old oolong.  lol.

Andrea stopped by today for a replacement keyboard as apparently there was a “liquid meets keyboard” incident at her house yesterday, lol.  She was nice enough to bring me by a stack of paper she had apparently been able to part with.  I’m giddy!  Fresh printed paper… yum.  Thanks Andrea!!

I spent my morning so far cleaning up around here.  My house has been pretty neglected for the most part over the last week or two and it needed a serious cleaning.  That, and it’s cold and I’m freezin, so all the cleaning is keeping me moving.  I have laundry to do and hopefully I can get myself to fold what comes out of the dryer instead of covering myself with the warm towels as they come out.    Brrr… I’m so ready for spring.

Happy Hump Day!
