I was a brownie scout for a brief time as a kid, so Girl Scout cookie time is nostalgic for me. I also have a huge sweet tooth so I can’t resist getting a few boxes -- to fulfill my craving and help young girls find a place of belonging. This year I only bought [...]
Disclosure: I was gifted this matcha for a free and honest review. As a Japanese Green Tea Co. affiliate, I will be compensated for sales made using my discount code. Happy matcha Monday! I don't know why I decided that now was a good time to go cold turkey on the coffee, while working and [...]

When ArtfulTea reached out to me a few months ago, I was excited to partner with them and review some blends they wanted to send me. What stood out most about this New Mexico-based company was their unique flavors, and especially the fact that they had purple tea. In those post I'm going to talk about [...]
