All of them taste like crap (most especially the Vanilla Caramel Truffle!!) except for the Bavarian Wild Berry. It doesn't have a berry taste to it (none of the flavors actually come through in any of the ones I tried) but i LOVE the aroma! I make a cup every night now just to smell it. LOL (Remember, I drink my tea unsweetened so maybe it needs sugar to carry the flavors better?)
Bummer! I'm sorry you aren't enjoying the teas!! But - ya know, I THOUGHT the Celestial Seasons teas were good UNTIL I bought the loose tea from Teavana - there is SUCH a difference!!

Wrecking Havoc: It's still a riveting tale
AWESOME!!! Thanks for posting the link to her story - I had no idea - I just thought the pic was cool! Makes the avatar that much cooler now!!

Keep up the great work and your February goal will be a piece of........protein?
LOL - LOTS of protein!!! I'm still working on the Strawberry Meringue Cookie recipe - I think I figured out what went wrong - I tried to use All Whites - instead of using "real eggs" and actually separating the whites.....after a couple attempts, my DH looked at the All Whites package - which specifically states "don't use for meringue" SO - I'm trying again today with egg whites - I'll report back!

Congrats on all the awesome looking workouts... and the update pics! You rock! Your new office looks great, beautiful and functional, and is surely enhanced by Pig - what a cutie!
I see another trip to Teavana in the very near future (this weekend) for some additional flavors (like the 8 I already have aren't enough!)


Check out what I got this morning!!! I have the bestest hubby in the world!!!!
