I managed to be the one to screw this up last year, but I am going to give it another shot today... I edited the recipe in red! I think that might have been why yours wasn't great last year! it's in the pan right now and looks promising. This time I put the icing sugar into the bottom of the kitche...

I liked the Gogi Pop. I put a little bit of brown sugar in it to take the tartness out of it

I thought the Sleigh Ride and Forever Nuts tasted similar. But the Sleigh Ride was a little too tart for my tastes. Maybe I oversteeped

If NYRR is waiting for insurance before moving ahead they are not using business sense. Then again I am not sure they are using business sense anyway. They promised everyone guaranteed entry for 2013 half or full. Half is closing this week (they have removed the statement about lottery results thou...

Hey all! I am in the midst of writing an article about massage and run training. I am looking to talk to (and quote) runners that receive regular massage when training for an event. If this is you, leave me a private message with your email address and I will be in touch!

The optimist in me was wondering if maybe this way the 9+1 are given ONLY 2013 entry and the next announcement will be that the other will get entry spread over x years. This way 'locals' with fewer expenses re: travel will be funneled into the next year (there aren't as many of them and 2013 could...

Ack! I am getting behind! My glitter and gold wasn't sparkly. Pout. I haven't had a chance to try creme brulee or today's breakfast tea yet. I made two cup of the Glitter and Gold and the first one I made in a David's Tea Bag and the second one I made using a tea ball strainer. The second one was g...

Apparently tbe Creme Brulee is green rooibos...... does that count?

Glitter and Gold: LOVED IT. But I wouldn't have minded if the flavour were a bit stronger.
Creme Brule: Also loved it. I have liked all the Roibois teas so far, so I might have to take back saying I don't like that tea as a rule.
English breakfast: good, but boring.

Didn't mind it, but wouldn't buy it myself. All I could taste in mine was ginger... no coco undertones or anything. When I make the second cup I will sweeten it a bit and see if that makes it more tasty for me.

I added a bit of milk and it's really creamy! I like it, but I wouldn't buy it since the thought of drinking a 'stimulant' every day doesn't appeal to me. (Yes, I realize my coffee is considered a stimulant.....) Does this tea have more caffeine than coffee? It sounds good. :) Eta: I just looked it...

Chocolate Rocket is a fave of mine, I usually have a tin of it. So I'm not the best one to comment on this one

I suffered from this when I started a retail job during school and was all of a sudden standing for 8 hours a day (even if I was wearing running shoes). Two things helped (although it took a long time to clear up) 1) the strassburg sock. Totally unsexy, but very helpful 2) Birkenstock inserts for my...

Anyone run the Marquis de Sade Half Marathon this morning?

The David's Tea advent calendar had us talking about a booze advent calendar on our last run. Just have to find a big enough shadow box. This one is much easier http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/11/24/hune7u3e.jpg Wine advent calendar :D When's the party? I'm there. :) "Only" one bottle per da...

I tried "Forever nuts" yesterday. I would have said, based on the name and smell, that I wasn't going to like it... but I tried it and LOVED IT!

The West end location here makes an iced latte using Forever Nuts that is apparently amazing.

Alpine Punch was pretty good. I'm not usually a Rooibos fan, so that's high praise from me
