on the holiday countdown..no time to think
need to get packed so I can relax (I have never looked forward to a long flight quite so much as I do right now )
I have recently (like 3 days ago) discovered the magic of ‘White Tea’ … not the kind the you’ve added milk to… but the pale cousin of green tea.
If you believe anything you read …
‘Lotus Peak White Tea is the pinnacle of sophistication with an unmatched subtlety, complexity and mellow sweet notes once reserved for Emperors and Nobility’
…wow…
(all I know is that it really does taste good)
Which is why I was so devastated to discover a teabag malfunction this afternoon….Having steeped for the requisite 3 minutes I headed to the quiet corner of the garden for my moment of indulgence. About to take my first sip I soon realised that the subtle, complex and mellow sweet notes of sophistication had spilled forth into my cup.
BUT not to be beaten I managed to strain the warm brew through my teeth.
(probably not the way of the Emperors, but tasty nevertheless)
so…if you get a chance ~ join the nobility
Tonight it was back to yoga…After a bit of a break, I figured it was time to go back and get reacquainted with my inner Zen (as well as limber up those muscles for my pending ‘pro-golfing’ career)
After a few ‘cow faces’ and ‘cobra poses’, we soon picked up the pace with some ‘downward facing dogs’, a few ‘warriors’ and some ‘camel poses’ before adopting the corpse position to finish up with a final relaxation…wow…talk about relaxed !! If I was any more relaxed I would have been in a coma…not even the gentle snoring of the others in the room was enough to bring me back to earth.
All I can say is… who needs drugs when you can deep breathe your way to oblivion?
