Ok day 1 white chocolate frost is ok. It mostly tastes like a regular cup of mint tea. I agree with deerdree i also would have preferred it with black tea.

I've cheated and started early since I am away over Christmas and will be behind a week. Day one done. White Chocolate Frost Meh. OK but not a repeat in my books. It was suggested as a latte as well but I generally always drink my tea straight up. (am I allowed to provide a review this early or did...

I'm excited too. I need to buy a tea ball still. :shifty: I prefer the cups that sit in your mug, as I find the tea balls let pieces of tea out and they end up in your mug of tea. Like this: http://images.davidstea.com/products/EN/900602_l.png oh yes I was actually planning on checking that one out...

Just getting our thread ready for this weekend! So excited!

Congrats Jesse!

Hey Ottawa Mommies...are we going to do the Winterman Relay again this year? Can Grandma's be included? And I can likely arrange a "special" rate again! :D Of course! Plus you were part of our winning team last year. :D I just checked and it is Feb 16 for the race. Hopefully it is warmer ...

We do need to defend our title! When is it?

Picked up my advent calendar today. I think we should do our taste testing thread gain for December, it was fun last year to see people's likes and dislikes.

I tried the gingerbread tea today. I don't usually like rooibos but it was really nice.

That sounded like an amazing time with your mom!!! Congrats to both of you.

I have it in my outlook to head over to David's on Friday. I am buying if it is new flavours from last year's calendar.

Great job Jesse!

Congrats for finally getting to do your marathon!

So I'm feeling really good, and no I'm not going to run for another couple of weeks anyway. I promised myself I'd wait till AT LEAST 4 weeks before I made ANY sort of call on running, but I'll likely wait till 6 weeks. The risks totally outweigh the benefits IMO- I've heard too many scary stories a...

So sorry to hear about your BF. That puts a lot in perspective when you hear situations like this.

You did amazing this weekend! What an outstanding race you had.

Totally in love with Mom's Apple Pie!!!!! I don't find it tastes like a green tea at all. I am on my second cup this morning. I can't stop smelling my mug. I only bought 50g of it, so I will definitely need to go and get some more to stash away for the fall and winter.

Just bought apple pie today. It smells amazing! Will give my review shortly.

Thanks Jesse for the fall update! I am low too on my tins. I still drink tea over the summer. I make a big mug each day at work. My regulars will probably need to be refilled this weekend. I usually get David's Organic breakfast, lalalemon, and Kokomo dragon for my green tea. I have a 100g of pumpki...

If you are looking to stay onsite at any of the value hotels for race weekend, better start looking to book now. I just reserved a room for Jan 9 and 10 before my cruise and the cheaper value options were very limited. We ended up at our third choice (Pop Century) as the first two options were alre...

WOW -- you are having a tough time of it -- hope things get sorted out soon!!

Your poor legs! Hope you can clear this up quickly.

Congrats on getting into San Fran! You will love it.

We actually do have an RMer (scrumhalfgirl) who keeps a pizza-centric blog, so we should all defer to her. I try not to eat much pizza anymore, but I've stumbled upon the best topping combination: anchovies and pineapple. The sweetest possible topping and saltiest possible topping together... amazi...

Wow! That is great news. Here's to your energy picking up!

Congrats! You were so dedicated and definitely earned this!

For those of you who are Disney vets... How much of a hassel is it to stay off site? Is it reasonable to expect to be able to park on race mornings, or is public transportation / cabs an option. It wasn't originally in the plans, but I think we have shifted our next years vacation plans to a trip t...
