MONDAY MUSINGS
FRIDAY DIARY
AFTER THE FACT
As summer comes to a close, I highly recommend listening to Fruit Bats album, The Ruminant Band. After-the-fact Newsflash: I’m way behind on the discovery of this album. Released in 2009, it didn’t fall on my delayed music palette until early 2011. I’m convinced there is some cosmic reason for this. Nevertheless, I spent this summer enjoying Fruit Bats and it’s not too late for you to enjoy a untimely listen either!
TEA
My love for green tea may be a bit excessive. Most days I drink 4 cups, sometimes more. I have also grown to love herbal teas, most of which contain no caffeine. Some of my favorites are:
Detox tea - This tea usually contains licorice root which is known for detoxifying the liver. Drink some of this tea after a night drinking to speed up the hangover process. Also, detox tea is great for your skin. You skin is a peek into your overall heath. If your insides are clean, you’re skin will soon follow.

Chamomile – known for its relaxing properties can be used for insomnia and anxiety. Also can be used to calm the stomach. Drink some right before bed and you will sleep like a baby. Chamomile is often found in “Bedtime tea” blends.
Lemon Ginger – both of these ingredients work wonders for your digestive system. This tea is great for settling the stomach.
Echinacea – known for boosting your immune system. If you ever feel a cold coming on, spend a couple days day fighting it with this tea paired with Vitamin C.

MONDAY MUSING
I should’ve kept a photo diary of last night. I was a walking cliché. I enjoyed takeout food, wine, chocolate, and a face mask while watching Serendipity. The only things that could have made my night more cliché are a aromatherapy bath, a book, and some tears. The good news is I feel well rested this Monday and ready to take on the work week.
These inspirations are setting the tone for my free time this week...
