326th New Thing - Drank Green Tea Triple Echinacea


Tea is a beverage made by soaking cured leaves of the of the Camellia Sinensis Plant in water. Tea is the 2nd most consumed beverage in the world (water is the 1st). The largest producers of tea are China, India, Kenya, Sri Lanka, and Turkey. Tea is said to provide antioxidant properties and therapeutic applications.

I’m feeling a little under the weather still so I wanted to drink some good herbal tea to help my immune system and prevent further getting any sickness. My co-worker is an avid tea drinker and has a variety of tea flavors. She had a Yogi tea box of Green Tea Triple Echinacea. Yogi Tea Company began in 1984 with packages of the rough, dried spices appearing in natural foods stores throughout Southern California. As demand increased, the spices were more finely ground, packaged and sealed into individual tea bags. By 1986, Yogi Tea was distributed nationwide in 3 flavors. Yogi has continued to expand and evolve tea offerings to address specific health needs by creating specialized herbal formulas, blended for both flavor and purpose. Today, Yogi has over 60 tea blends, many of which are created using the five original Yogi spices. Yogi teas are available in atural, grocery and mass market stores in the US and Canada. Green Tea Triple Echinacea is made with Green Tea Leaf, Lemongrass, Spearmint Leaf, Echinacea Root, Kombucha, Natural Flavors, and Elderberry Extract. Health practitioners for centuries have respected the powers of Echinacea. Green Tea Triple Echinacea is specifically formulated with traditionally used herbs to support your immune system, including 3 varieties of Echinacea Root. They complement this herb with Elderberry, used in European traditional medicine for centuries for its immune-suporting properties and support of the respiratory system. Organic Green Tea supplies antioxidants, while Lemongrass and Spearmint add a bright, refreshing flavor. Enjoy Green Tea Triple Echinacea throughout the day to support your well-being. I enjoy this tea with a little sweetener.

NOLA  - October 2018 Café Du Monde (800 Decatur St, New Orleans LA 70116) - Café Au Lait and Beignets, only a 10 minute wait with some live music and well worth it!

39th New Thing – Donated $1 to Books For Africa

I read an Oprah.com article, 16 Ways to Make an Incredible Impact With Less Than $15 , recently about 16 different organizations you can donate to for as low as a $1 donation or up to a $15. Since it is the holiday season of giving, I decided to donate $1 to Books For Africa . Supposedly $1 will provide 2 books shipped to a classroom in Africa. Access to an education is one of the only opportunities young people have to end the cycle of poverty and attain a better quality of life than previous generations. Books For Africa works to help children who otherwise would not attend school by supplying educational materials to reduce or eliminate education costs. In the wake of Wyclef's accusations (1/3 of $16 million raised went to the charity), I was a little leery of donating but if Oprah says it is a reliable organization, it must be! What did you do today?
