Tea Diaries: Teas To Help WIth Your Fitness Goals




January is almost over. How are your fitness goals going? Tea can be a helpful tool to help you with your goals. Honey has a lot of curative properties and sipping a little bit of hot sweetness can help curb your cravings. These two yogi teas will help with overall detoxification and digestive health:






I recently found these two tins of tea from the Republic of Tea. They are a little pricey at 12.99 a tin but I'm enjoying them. The Get Lean, Get Burning and Get Lost teas all have herbs that have been known to help with weight loss, energy and food cravings.


The Get Clean stack of teas all focus on gentle detoxification. One tin is for the am, one for the evening and the third for all day.


Both sets of these tins are very yummy tasting and warming. I add a little honey or zero calorie stevia for a little sweetness.

              Give these great teas a try !

I Am Star Wars Books From A Little Golden Books


I was such a fan of Little Golden Books adaptions of The six Star Wars Films, these follow up books are super cute and they tie into The Force Awakens.










I am a droid showcases various droids from The Phantom Meance to The Force Awakens. I loved the illustrations in this book they are sweet and funny. The writing is very solid and showcases the various duties of Droids



Author Christopher Nichols focuses on Jedi in this story. I was very happy to see they started the book spotlighting Jedi from the prequels which is where we first git to see female Jedi in action. Yoda, Mace Windu and even Jedi younglings are showcased in this novel along with the Sith and a few pages about Anakin Skywalkers fall to the Dark Side.



In this volume Nichols and artist Alan  Batson showcase Pilots of the Star Wars galaxy.  Han Solo  is showcased in this book as well as Poe Dameron and a guest appearance by Lando . My only complaint about this book is that it didn't include Hera from the Rebels animated series. Though to be fair she isn't a star of the film franchise which is the focus of the book.

These are a must buy for Star Wars book collectors and those wit little padawans at home .
