I? Tried two new things recently. That is not really like me, since I'm a creature of habit. One thing was some "jasmine pearls" tea. There is this man at work that comes in every now and then and I have to admit, at first I was all nervous around him because he was this big bankruptcy trustee that I knew all about years ago when I did BKs for the office. Now, he is retired and consults with our BK department. Anyways, he is a rather odd, but friendly guy. One day we were making small talk and he asked what I drink every morning. I showed him my mug with the Lipton tea bag in it and he insisted that his tea was superb and I needed to try it. A couple days later he brought it in. I must say, I was surprised. They looked like marijuana balls (pea sized). I literally would not leave them in plain sight because of how they looked, lol. At any rate, I made tea with them the next day and OMG, pure heaven!!! It was like I was drinking sweetened perfume! I know, it sounds gross, but it really wasn't!
The other new thing I tried was kale. My boss' wife gets it at Whole Foods and it's tossed with olive oil and lemon juice (I think) and I really liked it! *shocker* I can't wait to go buy me some.In other food news, pomegranates are back in season! *waves to Carey* I got some at Costco and they are so big that I actually have to split it and only eat half at a time. Oh, and another thing! I *finally* got my new phone!!! Pics:
I'm hoping to see my BFF this Saturday to go kayaking... I'm waiting for confirmation from her (she reads this so maybe she'll hurry up and call me, lol).
I also went to our annual family trip to the local apple farm and I have pics from that, too, but will update with those later. I have so many blogs to catch up on now...
*smooches*

The tea sounds like something I'd dislike. I don't like perfumey tasting beverages (why I don't like hoppy beers that use cascade hops). However, I love kale! Let's get together and eat some kale. I'll bring my own tea (currently discovered Arizona has tea bags & I'm drinking the mandarin green tea). :-)
Your phone is so cute. And it makes me crush on you a little because you go kayaking.
It's about time you updated, missy!
I will have to try Jasmine Pearl tea. Currently I am drinking either Celestial Seasonings Indian Spices Chai or Red Rose Tea (which is a Lipton product sold only in Canada (I think).) It is tastier, stronger and more aromatic than US Lipton tea.
Kale is okay. Not my fave, but okay.
Very cool phone!
I love Kale. I'm a big veggie eater and there isn't much I don't like.
Yay for trying new things.
Yay for getting the new phone! Oh, and thanks for reminding me - I have a pomegranate in my tennis bag! There is a man who plays tennis at the club who always brings me fruit from his trees. Wednesday, he brought me a pomegranate. :)
Hope you two have fun kayaking.
*smooch*
I tried some tea and milk to help me sleep, but it only made me go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. Maybe kale would do the trick...
