My Favorite tea & a wet lap


So as I was sitting on my bed, reading e-mails, chatting, drinking my favorite tea , and eating an apple (yeah I know it's weird, but it seemed to work ok for me today) ... oh have I mentioned I'm a massage therapist w/ a sprained wrist? Yeah, I have time for these type of things at 2 in the afternoon *eye roll* ... I apparently was so caught up in something on my laptop that I spilled the tea directly on my ... uhh lap. o_o
Ok, fine it was directly on my girly parts since I was sitting Indian style .... THANKFULLY though the favorite tea was already pretty cool, but it was not pleasant. Particularly because my bed is now wet ... and not in the good way. Haha, ew.

So one of my favorite memories of Morelia, was waking up to the smell of lemongrass. My family would make a big pot of it every morning, they have a lemongrass plant growing in the back, and it's just a must in our household. Well, here in Chicago it's really hard to keep a lemongrass plant, especially when you are me and lack a green thumb ... so on one wonderful day I found the favorite tea. We know the brand, we like the brand, but we honestly didn't really think it would taste the same as the tea made w/ fresh lemongrass. However, if it quenched our craving a little bit, it would be worth it, so we tried it, and I kid you not it was like I was in Mexico again. Oooooh the yumminess! Our home is never w/o it now.

Talk about product placement, I should get a cut or something. ;)
