Whole Day Tea!

Are you a tea or coffee person? Although I do enjoy coffee some days, I am without a doubt, a tea person through and through. Black tea, Green tea, u name it... I like it! I have read and been told about the goodness of tea time and time again. Tea is said to be a powerful anti-oxidant, and claimed to be anti-cancer and prevents against cardiovascular diseases as well. It also claimed to have the potential effect on heart disease risk reduction. I admit, I don't drink tea on a daily basis anymore... I am a soya and wheatgrass gal now *wink, but oh yes I do indulge myself with tea drinking once or twice a week. And let me 'story' u. Last Sunday, I had a whole day tea experience! Talk about taking it to the extreme!! lol

Started the day with a lovely brekkie at Coffee Bean with my mommy and sister. That's my salmon scrambled toast and side salad. And yup yup yup, Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf organic tea which comes together with the breakfast set I chose. And peeps, tea is only healthy if u take it WITHOUT heaps spoonfuls of sugar ya :) I take my tea without sugar nowadays. If u cannot take that, add brown sugar instead of white. Or better still, just add skimmed milk.

After a hearty breakfast, I skipped lunch and later proceeded to The Curve with my familia. I had a lovely time at Winter Warmers. I had tea of course, Rose Tea with real rose petals infused. So wangi! And my afternoon tea wouldn't be perfect without a plate of goodies, right? Scone, butter cookies, sandwich and a slice of yummy cake completed my tea time indulgence.

And who could resist icy cold Iced Lemon Tea in our scorching hot weather? My boys had a grand and 'cool' time drinking the refreshing beverage! As it was a whole day tea day, everybody get to drink tea, my boys included! Oh and I just discovered a new beauty tip. Do you know that tea is a sparkling tonic for all types of skin? Just dip cotton wool into cold tea, pat onto the skin and leave to dry! Wow, interesting. Shall we try that?

Back home from The Curve and Plaza Masalam SA, I had hot tea with ginger biscuits after the kiddos had gone to bed :) A cosy cosy tea for two with the hubster lah, best best...

But oh!! There's one person who did not get to drink tea that day. My littlest lah, who else. To compensate for the lack of tea drinking, he make do with a bottle of Enfagrow. Hehheh, tengok ganas tak Mommy dia duduk camtu.... nak pangku anak...camtu lah =)

Tea, anyone?
