Trying Something New
The air has turned cooler. And this non-coffee drinker was looking for new options. Apparently, so was my mother. A few weeks ago she ran into the store to buy some herb tea and stumbled upon her friend who was buying herb tea. Her friend recommended rooibus (pronounced "roy-boss"). My mother loved it. And then my search to find it was on. I went to five different stores before I found it. And, let me tell you, it was worth the wait. And I'm so happy that I like it, because I bought four boxes.
I always like to try new things, but I am often hesitant to go out of my comfort zone. So, tell me, what new things are you trying?
(And for your laughing pleasure: This morning I threw a tee shirt on after my shower so I could pack lunches. When I went upstairs "to get dressed," I put my bra on over my tee. I seriously do not know what I was thinking, except that I was totally not thinking. And Saturday at soccer Sawyer had to go potty. Even though there are port-a-pots, I told him to go behind a tree near the weeds. A few minutes later he emerged and put his fingers on my chin. I noticed they were wet! I shrieked, "get your fingers off my chin" in my shrill, loud voice. Which gained a lot of unwanted attention. Everyone looked at me as if I were a bad mother. I quietly explained to the people sitting directly next to me that he had just gone to the bathroom and his fingers were wet. That's the life, I tell ya. Pee on my chin.)

I'm really laughing at the bra over the tshirt. How funny. Sounds like something I would do. :o)
Love, Katie
(Oh, and there's an AWESOME Rooibos Chai mix that you can find sometimes. The normal box is purple, and has black tea. The one we buy is red. Om nom nom.)
I'm a non-coffee drinker, too, and am always in the market for a new tea.
Is it an herbal? Caffeinated? (Although I assume not)
Also, I can't imagine how you could not scream. No one needs pee on their face.
how does rooibos tea taste? is it along the lines of chai by chance?
To those who have asked, it's a very earthy flavor. It's actually from the bark, not the leaves of the bush. It's reddish brown, and tastes like...reddish brown. It doesn't really float in your nose like other herbs. I call it a smooth flavor.
As for the wet hands... so this is what I have to look forward to with a boy, huh? :)
