My grandmother bought me a box of various tea flavors and so far I've tried Black Current and Chai. They both are really good. I was never a big hot tea drinker but since I bought my first tea cup and saucer set a few weeks ago I've taken an interest in it. We buy Gevalia Black Tea to make iced tea with but I tried it hot one day and found it to be almost better than cold. Of course I tell my grandma about my purchase and she comes up with the most beautiful tea set and tea for my baptism gift. It was a really nice surprise. I didn't know she was going to bring me a gift. :)
The past two days I have enjoyed trying the tea. This morning instead of coffee I tried the Chai again, while I watch Kathy Lee and Hoda. I've become quite a creature of habit lately. I get up at 9:30am and have coffee or tea, watch the morning news and Kathy and Hoda and then make something for breakfast. I got hooked on The Days of Our Lives when the real Rave was in the convent with amnesia.. but that seems to be the slowest going part.. and I'm getting bored after only a week and a half.
I'm always in search of new recipes, but lately I've been looking for something wonderful to make for my cousins graduation party next weekend. I know I've got some time but I want to make something really great and it has to be enough for 30 to 40 people.
I still have company but he leaves during the day so I have to get most of my research done during the day since there is so much conversation when both him and my dad get home. No big deal.. just less room to spread out on the couch in quiet. lol.
I started Letters to Juliet yesterday but it was pretty close to dinner time and I was going to make crepes so I needed to start the prep work so I plan on watching the end of it today after my dad leaves. He came home for lunch and I guess to check if the part for our washer came in but it hasn't yet. I hope it comes cause I need to do laundry bad.
It's only 8 days till I go take the tour of the culinary department and get more detailed information about the classes. I'm so excited. My dad is going to take the morning off to go with me. I just know this is going to be great. I just keep cooking and learning new things and reading about different cultures and where certain dishes originated and most importantly asking god to keep me motivated and headed down a path that will lead me to a prosperous future.
I hope everyone is having a wonderful day. Last night I made chicken crepes and warmed pear sauce that I served over frozen yogurt. It was delicious and my dad and FB agreed and talked restaurants afterward. I believe I will go have my afternoon tea now. :)
