Yesterday my husband and went on an adventure to Mt. Hood. And of course I had to bring my book! It was a beautiful day, and we both had so much fun!

The Lagoon Nebula 

This colorful image, taken by our Hubble Space Telescope between Feb. 12 and Feb. 18, 2018 , celebrated the Earth-orbiting observatory’s 28th anniversary of viewing the heavens, giving us a window seat to the universe’s extraordinary tapestry of stellar birth and destruction.

At the center of the photo, a monster young star 200,000 times brighter than our Sun is blasting powerful ultraviolet radiation and hurricane-like stellar winds, carving out a fantasy landscape of ridges, cavities, and mountains of gas and dust.

This region epitomizes a typical, raucous stellar nursery full of birth and destruction. The clouds may look majestic and peaceful, but they are in a constant state of flux from the star’s torrent of searing radiation and high-speed particles from stellar winds. As the monster star throws off its natal cocoon of material with its powerful energy, it is suppressing star formation around it.

For all you authors and business owners, do you find it hard to get out and market your product/service? When I published Royal Thief, I really dropped the ball on marketing. It’s only been this past year or so that I’ve really begun to focus on getting my books out there. And honestly, writing the book really is the easy part of publishing. It’s worth the effort, but man is it hard! #royalthief #resistance #redemption #resistanceduology #laurakehoe #selfpublished #indiebooks #bookbaby #entrepreneur #marketing #writergram #writersofinstagram #igreads #igwrites #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #fantasybooks #smallbusiness https://www.instagram.com/p/Bzs0QIzgdXm/?igshid=j0q2fck837so

Do you enjoy writing (fiction or nonfiction)? What kind of things do you like to write? Talk to me about any writing projects you have or are working on! The Resistance Duology is my only published work at this point, but I have so many other finished and unfinished projects! Maybe one day I’ll finish them all. 😂 #writergram #writersofinsta #igreads #igwrites #royalthief #resistanceduology #redemption #laurakehoe #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #fantasy https://www.instagram.com/p/BzYGwKeg1ry/?igshid=zact81l1v6zi

Japanese tea bag maker Ocean-Teabag has been making waves by creating little parcels of aroma in the shape of marine animals. Luckily for us, their wide range of tea bags are available at online Japanese novelty retailer Village Vanguard, maker of such fine products as Space Tea and cat-shaped kitchen utensils.

Ocean-Teabag’s earliest designs included beautiful dolphin tea bags filled with blue mallow tea leaves. Steeping them turns your otherwise normal pot of water into a tranquil ocean. Proving to be a hit among tea lovers, Ocean-Teabag expanded their repertoire to many other sea creatures including the sea turtle (butterfly pea jasmine tea)…

the distinctive ocean sunfish (Japanese hojicha — roasted green tea)…

the graceful manta ray (tropical mango tea)…

and even a blood-thirsty shark (blended herb tea).

The newest addition to their robust series of marine creatures is a tea bag shaped like an innocuous sea cucumber. This little parcel is filled with jasmine tea, as well as a smidgen of sea cucumber powder to lend some authenticity. Ocean-Teabag warns that some people who have a sensitive tongue may find it tasting a little fishy.

The company also crafted a deep sea series that will satisfy even the most adventurous of tea drinkers out there. A few such examples are the anglerfish (earl grey tea)…

the creepy giant isopod (Eastern Beauty oolong tea)…

the horseshoe crab (white apricot tea)…

…and lastly the king of them all, the enormous giant oarfish. ( Delicious Assam tea of epic proportions! ) Just like its namesake, it measures a whopping 19 centimeters (7.5 inches). Drinking tea becomes an art when half of your tea bag hangs out of your cup.

 While the notion of turning your cup of tea into fish-inhabiting waters is not new, these tea bags will hopefully conjure up images of gentle ocean waves in your mind.
