  • The Persimmon Tree Tea Company Review

    Ahhhhh heck, this business appears to have gone out of business. It was great tea though. I love ending a day with a cup of hot tea. Course, lately I’ve loved starting my day with a cup of Persimmon Tree Tea Company, Peach Picnic is so awesome!! First off the packaging.  I love the tin.  It’s cute enough to sit out on the counter!  I love the colors.  The tin is very retro.  LOVE it!! Persimmon Tree Tea Company thought of everything to keep the tea fresh by placing a seal inside the lid. That snug fitting lid really keeps the tea fresh so when you open the lid you smell that delicious peach scent! YUM!! Ingredients Organic Green Rooibos, Orange Peel, Sunflower Petals, Natural Peach, Strawberry and Orange Flavoring, Green Rooibos Tea, Peach Rooibos Tea I enjoyed the tea hot but it’s awesome over ice as well!! The tea taste amazing.  The tea is smooth, slightly sweet and full of great peach taste. The Peach Picnic has no bitter aftertaste that other brand teas sometimes have.  And the scent is FANTASTIC!!!  It makes having that cup of tea a full-on experience!! The taste, the smell and the fact that the tea…

  • Photography Workshop Review Part 5

    This week I learned about Light Metering and Flash also the Review Chapter from EasyPhotoClass. Light Metering.  WOW did I ever need this chapter and once again I found a button on my camera that I didn’t know what it was for. Do you have this button?  Do you know what it’s for?? Light Metering opens up a whole new way to shoot photos for me!!  No more photo’s that are too dark or all washed out. I’ve also learned the importance of a gray card!!  It’s next on the list of ‘must haves’ for my camera!!  I can’t believe the difference a gray card can make!!  Now you can get an expensive light meter for a couple of hundred dollars or a $20-$30 gray card…. guess which one I’m opting for?? Okay, I have to share some of my ‘homework’ pictures.  I didn’t change the lighting in the room.  I didn’t move from my seat.  I only adjusted my camera settings with this week’s lessons. I am really learning so much with this class!  I have to say I love the fact that I am learning on my schedule.  My pace.  My LIFE!!  I also love the fact that…
