Yay! More Scraps Done and Tea, Anyone?

Whoohoohoo!!! I have been a scrapping machine today! :) No, I didn't go to work today---I had to rest my back since I could feel that I was paying for staying seated for several hours yesterday, plus a light treadmill workout. No way am I going to push it, especially when it concerns my back. I think back to the few months late last year when I was in excruciating pain, and I say NEVER AGAIN!!! So it may seem that I'm babying my back, but I do know my body and know when to say stop.

Anyhoo, check out my scraps today:

I know, it's all about the Easter egg hunt, but my hard drive is FULL of unscrapped photos of Easter! Hehehe. And no better way to scrap than the present, right? Besides, I've got a lot of CT kits that have chicks, bunnies, pastels and other spring colors and embellishments.

{OTHER SCHTUFF}

Ugh, I had hamburger steak for dinner. Gross. After the no meat diet during Lent, I'm having a very hard time digesting meat and chicken. Ugh, ugh, ugh! But I'm squeamish about going vegetarian again. I was a vegetarian (but ate chicken, turkey, cheese and eggs) a looong time ago, while I was in college. Survived for 7 years or so. I must admit, I felt cleaner and lighter whenever I don't eat meat. But there's something in me that rebels when I have to announce that I'm going vegetarian. Weird huh?

To combat my feeling of grossness and near nausea at this point, I'm having some tea. No coffee this late in the day, obviously, otherwise I'd be up 'til 7 in the morning, hehehe. Tea is the safest bet for me. Light, fruity and healthy! I know that teas are natural anti-oxidants --- which I definitely need after eating that hamurger steak! I take my tea lukewarm. I know they probably taste best when piping hot, but I'm leery of putting a cup of steaming anything near my mouth. I'm prone to mouth sores, and there's no way I'm going to start that vicious cycle again!

Looking through this tea site has intrigued me. Their teas look lovely (say that in a british accent and you'll get me, hehehe). But seriously, they have all sorts of flavors AND they have an explanation of why the tea got its name! Click on the tabs and you'll find the benefits of each tea, along with instructions on how to steep the tea. I'm going to email this site to my dear mother, who loves teas as well.

Bang, if you're reading this, check it out as well. Looks nice and fancy, but looks awesome! :)

Ok, back to scrapping.....:)

TTFN!
