Sweet and Spicy Pretzels

I wanted to try this recipe I found on Recipezaar. You know how the ingrediants just melt in your mouth without ever touching your tastebuds? So I tried it and well, they turned ok. They are much more tasty the next day. Why is that? Some things need time to marinate or infuse together to bring it all together, to taste really good! Like for example, next days potato salad...YUMMO!

So here is the recipe:

Here is the next day look:

So maybe you would like this for your Superbowl party or

a snack for the opening ceremony of the Olympics. I think they

are ok, but maybe someone out there could spruce it up a bit.

Tea for ME

Recently I have been following some blogs that have perked my interest in eating more wholesome, raw foods for health reasons. And it just looks dang tasty!
They post their teas and has my mouth drooling to taste, so I went out on a search for some really good green tea.  I found sencha green tea at World Market  16 bags for $ 4.00! Way better pricing than some other places that wanted $12. Plus it's organic.  So, I tried it and LOVE it! I know your not supposed LOVE material things, but it comes pretty close! I also really like peppermint tea! I've read it is a great astringent for your skin and helps wake you up. For the last few months, I like to drink tea at nite, right as the boys are hitting the sacks.  I always stir some raw honey to sweeten it up.

These are my 2 faves right now .

Here they are together, working on infusing!

It's fun to steep and dunk!

Adding some saweetness!

Mesmerized by the swirls...

And there you have it, TEA!

What's your favorite? Do you smell the bag? Favorite mug?
