Royal Tea- Pecan Pie


It is the fall season and with our church opening a tea shop in our small town I think it will be appropriate to do some taste testings and let you in on all the goodness... O' these teas, YUM!!   So we opened the online store yesterday www.royaltea.org   
We do not have our doors open for business yet since we are still in the paperwork stages; and that takes longer than anticipated, so we will open with the online store right now. 

So what is the mission of Royal Tea?   It is so exciting I just want to shout it out... we love people and want to do a better job at showing it.  Here is the actual mission:  "We partner with you to change the world! Or at least someones world! Funds raised through Royal-Tea go to feeding starving children, giving them educations and clothes; Rescuing Women from sex trafficking and giving them jobs and educations; Supporting missionary work locally and globally; and serving as a resource to local events and initiatives.
The Staff Volunteers! The staff at Royal Tea shop are volunteers! They believe in tea with a mission and put their own labor behind it! You can feel good about your purchase knowing you’re having a positive impact!"

Tea Tasting Time! 
Tonight as I write this I am drinking a big cup of "Pecan Pie."  This Pecan Pie tea is a caffeine free tea so I can drink it for dessert in the evenings.  I make my tea without adding sugar or honey just straight up Royal Tea leaves and hot water.  I bought the 4 ounces of this tea and very happy with it.  The aroma as it was steeping was flooding my mind with Thanksgiving!  The smell was so delightful!  So with the first sips of pecan pie tea I immediately tasted some caramel!  The other flavor notes in this tea include nutty, buttery, and caramel.   For every 6 ounces of water you will need two tsp. of tea and steep it for 5-7 minutes.  The tea can be re-steeped a few times too! My daughter got the second steep, and now I have cold water in it for an overnight cold brewed steep for my morning! Waking up to tea that's already made is so exciting to me.

Liquid Chalk spray! Chalk Idea #7

Last week we tried out the fizzing sidewalk chalk- click here to read that review. This week it is liquid chalk spray.  They are a bit similar but yet different.  Here is how to make it: Supplies: 1 tsp. washable tempura paint 1 cup of hot water 1/2 cup of cornstarch squirt of dishwashing liquid 1 squirt bottle- I found them at the dollar store 1.  Add cornstarch to one cup of hot water whisking to mix so that there are no clumps. 2.  Add one teaspoon of washable tempura paint and a quirt of dishwashing liquid.  Mix well. 3.  Pour it into your squirt bottles and shake well. 4.  Go have fun!!!   This kept my daughters attention much longer the the fizzy chalk last week.  I also think this was easier to work with and just more fun in general.  I love seeing the chalk wet but then to see it dry.  I think it dried darker so it was fun to see the changes.  :)  Ready, Set, Go!  Have some fun! She is my little model... she kept saying "take my picture mom." She is like her

Toddler Rainbow Craft for St. Patricks Day

St. Patrick's day is March 17th so its approaching quickly.  I have a few ideas on art and food projects that i want to do with the kiddos.  Hopefully I will have enough time to complete them and share them with you.   This was a super easy one for those little hands.  I cut the stripes of colored paper but if you are working with a preschooler or school aged child then they can practice cutting.  The two toddler boys here only had to glue the pieces on their piece of paper.  EASY, but they enjoyed it!  :)  It sure has brightened my kitchen with them hanging on the fridge!  :)   I also talked more about the Promise God gave us with the rainbow since I know that history a whole lot better then the history of the Irish Holiday!
