National Relaxation Day 2013

Hope everyone is enjoying a little relaxation today.  Sitting down with a nice cup of tea and a good book, or maybe treating yourself to a massage or pedicure, or a walk in the park.  Whatever helps you to relax and de-stress.  A piece of cheesecake to go with that tea wouldn’t hurt either.  ☺

As for me, I’m enjoying(?) a little forced relaxation.  I don’t recommend a fractured rib as a means of slowing down to a gentler pace.  Boy, it sure makes you feel old when you start doing crazy things like falling in the shower.

Teas’ Tea Latte

My husband and grandson spent a day with the folks at Whirlwind Missions and visited the Buford Hwy Farmers Market as part of the trip.  They had an exciting day and came back with lots of stories and a few treats from the market where they enjoyed lunch.

They brought home a bottle of tea for me and said that I would have loved the huge selection of teas that were available at this market.

I liked the haiku poetry and health information on the label.  The tea itself was not to my taste (a little sweet).  The Ito En online store has several other items that I’d like to try including Sencha Shot, Oi Ocha and some interesting tea ware.

Have any of you checked out the tea selection at the Buford Hwy Farmers Market?
