Moon, I'll play with that over the next couple weeks.

So are there any alternatives you can use?

Depends on the need. For the most part, not really. Things like Jack Fruit and the like don't sit well. There are some cross applications for vanilla- but that's about the most reasonable so far.

It's really funny to me on a certain level- so much so, I mention it in my profile.

And Moon, that looks very tasty.

I'm curious, Niamhybeag--you say your mum uses lavender for headaches? How well does it work? I get chronic headaches, and I've got crazy tolerances to most medications so that's not much of an option. sweatdrop

Lavender is used in aroma therapy to reduce headaches, most effectively on stress induced headaches.

Might be worth a shot, since stress is probably a factor in my headaches. I'm a worrier. ^^;

Speaking of headaches, taking your vit I with black tea helps it work better. 3nodding

I actually found it was more common that I had been led to believe. ninja

I ran out of my Tao of Tea matcha, and used Stash's Powdered Green Iced Tea out of desperation.

Don't do it. It was disgusting.

Has anyone ever tried anything by the brand 'teapigs'? A cute local cafe my friend took me to was selling boxes of tea by them.
They have some attractive looking jasmine tea I would like to try.
