Mostly the hubby and I slept. And stayed in our pjs. And had strep lol. I got a new tea to review, Marpe Teas NW Detox Tea. Its supposed to be a weight loss tea. I have to be honest, I have not done it the full 14 days you are supposed to before noticing weight loss. So I can’t pass judgement on that. Plus, I stopped a med with the side effect of weight gain, so I mean, any weight I lost this week (5lbs!) I’m attributing to that so far. But I’m going to keep drinking this. Because it is damn tasty, even without the recommended honey and lemon, and it made my throat feel so, so much better. Plus, I did notice less bloating, and its supposed to help with that too. But mostly the throat soothing is the big thing for me. Its got green tea, holy basil, spearmint, rose hips (never would have thought spearmint and rose hips tasted good together, but they do), lemon myrtle, linden blossoms, and ginger root, and its all organic. Love that it is 100% organic. Anyway, it makes sense that spearmint, green tea, holy basil, and ginger root would help the throat feel better. I am familiar with these herbs, and with rose hips. Which I have to admit, have never been my favorite on their own. But they add a mild sweetness and I don’t taste them overly in this tea besides just in the sweetness, so I like it. I never have tried anything with lemon myrtle or linden blossom before, and definitely want to find out more about these herbs. Anyway, this weekend was nice, save the strep thing. But it let V and I just hang out, which was something we haven’t done in a while. We are always going and doing on the weekend it seems like! Which is also good, and we enjoy that, but it was also nice just to chill in my pjs. I guess being sick made me not feel like I was wasting time by sleeping in, because I am very much a constantly must be doing something type of person. My dad came by and surprised us with a ton of groceries from Costco, too. It was so sweet of him... He drove an hour just to do that. (He didn’t want to stick around and potentially be contaminated.) Seriously though, my parents are the sweetest. It was really nice of them to do that for us. So basically... I was sick but it was a pretty zen weekend haha. Here is the link to the magic throat healing tea if anyone is interested in trying it out! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0163GLAJY?ref_=ag_dp_usw2_LLowI_rtT1 <a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=BOTTOMac59b3411773bdcb7b959c352ae6427b" rel="nofollow"><img style="display: none" src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" /></a>
