Tea Appreciation - Mariage Freres Tea Bouddha Bleu

-


Everyone loves to be appreciated.  Some people say that your appreciation is your paycheck and that's true to an extent, but there's nothing better than having someone show you how much they value your work.

And while many people really scoff at the notion of "Administrative Professionals Week," I enjoy the attention.

And it's always nice when one of your bosses shows you "special favor" in the form of a gift.

My "girl boss" made my week with not one, but TWO boxes of this fancy French Mariage Freres Tea.

I had never even heard of it, but when she came with a bag from Gump's, I knew it had to be special.

She got me the tea pouches which I love for convenience sake at work and this green tea (Bouddha Bleu) has really helped with my sniffles this week as I struggle with a nasty headcold.

Happy Administrative Professionals Week.  I hope you have received at least something to show how much you're valued.

I enjoy and delight in experiencing artisan roasted coffee and I can ride the "third wave" as good as the next person, but sometimes I just want to remember the way things used to be. So, the Eight O'Clock K-Cup  is the perfect way to enjoy a coffee that's always had a special place in my heart - but with a new twist. All these new single-serve coffees are making me lazy. But, don't worry, I'm an equal opportunity coffee-lover. Here's to the weekend!

All Time Favorite Coffee Jingles

I have consumed a lot of coffee over the last couple of decades, but it's mainly through "trial and error," "word of mouth," or "pure luck," that I found those I've enjoyed the most. And, of course, the folks who reach out and let me know about the great coffees that are out there. But with micro roasters becoming more and more popular, and grocery store coffee being talked about less, even though many supermarket varieties are very good, I can't help but remember some of those jingles and television commercials that remain etched in my mind. Some of my favorite coffee jingles: "Good to the Last Drop" (TM) (Maxwell House) "Richness Worth A Second Cup" (TM) (Yuban) "The Best Part of Waking Up, Is Folgers In Your Cup" (TM) And, last but not least, drumroll. . . .my all-time favorite: "Fill It To the Rim With Brim" (TM) (Brim Decaffeinated Coffee) (special thanks to my sister for remin...
