Coco Truffle Tea

I was watching Hook this evening, and I found this chant (by the Lost Boys), sung to encourage Pan to be fit enough to fight Captain Hook:
 
"Pick 'em up! Move 'em down! Pick 'em on up! Move 'em on down! Ain't no time to celebrate! You are old and overweight! Gotta lose a million pounds! Get your fat butt off the ground! Reach on down and touch your toes! How long since you looked at those? Shape up! Lose weight! Get thin! Gotta win! Jumping jacks are good for you! Now your face is turning blue! Swing your arms around your back! Give yourself a heart attack! Gotta train! In the rain! In the sun! In the snow! Ten below! Gotta move! Gotta do! Gotta crow!"
 
It made me chuckle. I should download it for my next workout.
 
 
On a completely unrelated note, I took this tea from my mom's cupboards a few days ago (I'll reiterate: she eats hardly anything that she buys at the store... she lives off of tomatoes until dinnertime). It's called Coco Truffle tea, by: Tea Forte. It's amazing, and it tastes like chocolate:
 
I know what you're thinking. Where can I find such a lovely tea cup? It's a fantastic feat. Go to America, visit a mall (any mall), and walk into a Chinese gift shop. Somewhere within that shop will be at least ten different trinkets that depict a picture of your Chinese Zodiac sign. They each often offer a paragraph that explains your personality, which is based upon the year in which you were born. If you're lucky enough, they'll have teacups.

...and if you are in America, I know that you're nodding in agreement. If you aren't nodding, then you're missing out on our malls' greatest tourist attraction (they have kimonos!).

    1. Tea is amazing. I have a very odd eclectic collection of mugs, which aren't quite tea cups nor coffee cups. I scavavange around for odd artsy ones at Hobby Lobby (sort of a hodgepodge of artist supplies [sharpies!], local art, and 'make-your-own-soap' kits).
