getting in my first big mug this morning after a scare with DD's younger cat...I call him our kitten but he is 2 1/2 so not really a kitten anymore but our other one is 5 almost so he is a kitten compared to her. DH had to have let him escape this morning when he left...at 3:00am. Anyway, the missing is found but boy is he still shaking in his boots.

Lori, I don't let my cats out, either. I always remember my vet telling me "there is nothing out there that is GOOD for a cat!" If one got out, I know I would panic. Neither knows the first thing about "the great outdoors."

Ooh, have to look for that red tea next time I'm at Wild Oats! And did get in my 4 cups yesterday with a bar (sigh) but still held at 127.5 this AM!

Alida, Celestial Seasonings has a good vanilla Rooibos (pronounced ROY-bus) with a Lion on the front. I usually brew a bag of decaf green with my Lion tea.......and add a splash of s/f vanilla syrup, YUM YUM!!! And SOOTHING!!!!

ooohhh, that rooibos is sooooo good, i have the vanilla by CS that Barb is speaking of. i read some more on it and supposedly it has as much as 50% more anti-oxidants as green tea, I also read that it does relax colicky babies as well. well i guess im now a green/red tea drinker now. Oh and the red tea is excellent for help replacing more quickly the oxygen loss in cells of people who workout a lot, wow, that alone sold me. As im more into kickboxing now, need all the help i can get.

since im adding in red tea, i bought a bottle of green tea tablets, so that i can continue to get as much as before, because trying to add to 6 cups will be a feat. Does anyone know if the tablets are as potent as the tea, my mind is telling me that somehow some of the potency maybe lost in the manufacturing process. Just not really sure though. not to mention i need some backup, because i only get one weekend off a month, on that weekend im really on the go and most of the time dont get my tea, water and supplements in on that weekend.

Celest, LOL! It can be a real FEAT to get all our water, teas, and supps in, especially when running around in the car doing errands. I always take my supps in the AM, after breakfast. Since I always eat breakfast, this is pretty much a no brainer. Every two weeks, I put al my supps in little plastic baggies, so all I have to do every AM is grab a baggie. I tried looking for those pill containers that have a section for each day, but none are BIG enough to hold all the pills I take!

And Barb, I checked the regular grocery yesterday for the red tea . . . no avail. This weekend I think I'll try Wild Oats. The have a big selection of CS.

That is weird Alida, I am seeing rooibos EVERYwhere. Guess your stores haven't gotten with the program. I'm sure you'll find it at Wild Oats. If you can't, ask the store (whichever one) to order for you and tell them all the benefits.

Celest, I think the pills are just as effective if not MORE. I think the capsules are very concentrated.

I've been seeing ads on TV for some Green Tea GUM, haven't looked for it. I wonder what they sweeten it with.

I'm indulging in a cup of coffee today. I'm off, lounging around and decided to have a cup of joe. I'll get my tea in today though too. And my water.

Post Re: March Green Tea Drinkers

Hello all "Green Tea" challengers,
I love Celestial Seasonings Honey Lemon Ginseng "Green Tea". I've been drinking it now for about 2 weeks. There's my two cents.
BTW, could someone tell me the rules of this challenge?
