Coffee And Tea Makes Me Happy

Going to just write a regular old fashioned typed blog here before bed.  So the video blog was a super success!  I'm at 52 views now! So that's pretty awesome.  I'm starting to think of ideas for more of those.  I also spent tonight playing around with video stuff and the program I use and my camera I used to try and see if I can figure out some new tricks.  I mostly just did a lot of reading and researching online.

Anywho this blog is going to be about my favorite beverages... coffee and tea!  They make me oh so happy... well that and they make me go pee.  But... that's a little too much information and you probably didn't need to know that.  It's kinda late and I'm sleepy sooooo I'm allowed to say weird stuff like that.

So I've been drinking lots of tea for a long while now... but recently I've gotten into drinking more black tea instead of just green and herbal.  As well I've been drinking more coffee too.  I don't know why exactly but I kind of just have really been enjoying the stronger taste they both offer along with my other tea beverages.

Generally I drink a cup of joe in the morning.  I'll make that in my french press.  I just brew Folgers dark roast.  I really like the dark roast coffees more than the light or medium ones.  Then around lunch time I'll make some black tea... they have lipton loose tea at the store and it's actually REALLY good!  Also it's pretty super cheap too!  I mean I get 1/2 pound of it for about 4 bucks!  Normally tea is 10 to 20 dollars for a 1/4 pound.

Ok then I'll do a green tea after that and then I'll brew maybe an herbal.

So with all this brewing I'm a doing... I need some kind of container to hold it in!  I have several different ones.  They are all pretty awesome... but they all do one thing... they aren't sealed so if you tip them upside down... they leak out.

Well recently I found that the same people who make my water bottle also make an insulated version for hot and cold beverages!

Ok well so since I bought a new lunch box as everyone knows... and it matches my water bottle, I think it only fitting that I get a new item to hold my coffee and tea that will match my water bottle as well!

 

So this is going to be my next purchase.  I'll be buying the Klean Kanteen insulated bottle to match my current one.  One will be for water and then the other will be coffee or tea!

I suppose they don't exactly match my lunchbox... they are more silver and my lunch box is gray  or grey... depending on your spelling preference.

But I think they do coordinate well together!  I'm pretty super excited about this being my next purchase.  The thing I really love about this bottle is that it will fit just like my current one does in the drink holder of my backpack!  So when I tip out the door to head off to work I can free up an extra hand instead of fumbling with my keys and whatever else I need to carry while trying to not spill hot coffee or tea!

But really the most important part is that my water bottle and my hot beverages bottle will match each other.  Okeys well it's time for me to get to sleep!  I hope everyone has a super awesome Tuesday and that it's trouble free!
