Nice!! I don’t have the whisk so I just throw it in the blender. But yours is so much prettier 🥰

OMG, I feel right at home in this thread.

I drink tea most of my day. I primarily drink green tea, flavored green tea, or green tea blended with an herbal. I avoid black tea due to caffeine content but will enjoy oolong if I need a boost. I keep pu erh on hand and have a blend of pu erh with chrysanthemum. I have tried ayurvedic spice tea blends and like them. I've even made my own ginger tea from fresh ginger. I prefer loose teas in an infuser but will tolerate bagged tea for convenience while traveling.
I generally drink my tea unsweetened, although if I feel like I need an immune system boost I'll put a little raw honey in it.
I love tea and I consider myself a bit of a connoisseur.

I like that chart Green Tealael, think I'll go brew me some Ginger Tea,ate myself some Cheerios this AM , stayed down but Precious Pouch feels crabby, don't want to feed her again. According to N.P. my stoma should be letting some foods through but it feels like it's still sitting there. If I upchuck, I guess I'll know, won't I?

I’ve been meaning to try matcha!

My favorite teas at the moment are chocolate mint rooibos, simple mint teas, and lady grey. I mostly took my current job because we have an instant hot Water thingy! Tea all day for me.

I was actually pretty major into coffee (I live in OR, it’s a law here) but can’t drink it unsweetened. My program requires that we not drink our calories, so that was the first thing I gave up. Teas SAVED me, and made the transition away from coffee pretty easy.

Oh great thread! I'd forgotten about it!

I just had matcha kefir. Oh yes she did! ;) Unorthodox? Perhaps, but as delish as the matcha yogurt I'm now addicted to...ahem, yeah that's you little missy. You know who you are!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
