After much trial and error, I present to you: Harvest Spice Tea!
Here is the beautiful reveal...
This tea is reminiscent of Pumpkin Pie with all of those same yummy spices in a Vanilla Rooibos Tea.
Naturally caffiene free, and all organic!
To gain the pumpkin flavoring, simply add a teaspoon of Pumpkin Butter! Mix with a splash of cream {or Rice Milk, in my case} and a sprinkling of nutmeg. Ahhhh...dessert in a cup!
So onto the giveaway...
This week there will be two winners! Each will receive a package containing: a bag of Mama Cook's Harvest Spice Tea, a jar of Trader Joe's Pumpkin Butter, and a tea strainer.
To enter, simply post a comment on a question or topic you would like to see me blog about! You can enter as many times as you wish! If you share a link to my blog via Facebook, you receive an additional entry!
Winners will be randomly selected and announced next Friday!
Be Refreshed!
money saving shopping ideas for the holidays
ReplyDeleteHow do you get your kids to hang up their towel on the hook after their shower/bath? My kids have a spot to hang theirs and I might start screaming if I find a damp towel on the floor of their room again!
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to read how you cut corners and ways your family lives frugal.
ReplyDeleteAlso, what is your bedtime routine for your littles?
I have TWO links to your blog (yes, before you even asked! ...although, admittedly, the second was an accidental repost).
ReplyDeleteBuuuut...my question to you, Mama Cook, is about your diapering system. Granted, I have some foreknowledge, and use Bum Genius cloth diapers like you, but lately my little girl has been drinking so much before nap and bedtime that she soaks through the insert and ALWAYS wakes up wet! So, how do you keep the diapers from leaking?! Am I doing something wrong?
I shared your blog!
ReplyDelete...your welcome!
@Tristen, feed her a few tablespoons of baking flour before she goes down for a nap, after drinking her milk. the flour will soak up the liquids in her stomach and result in less liquidy waste.
ReplyDeleteI would love more of your recipes...shopping tips!
ReplyDelete@ tristen, I would add another insert or possibly put a plastic pants over the diaper as well to protect the bedding. It seems with mine, it's been phases and we use disposables for naps and nighttime when they go through leaking phases.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to know your morning routine, how long it takes you to get out the door and what you do before hand and the actual morning of.
I'd love to hear about homeschooling your brood. Advice and tips for those of us new to the journey!
ReplyDeleteLove you!
I also posted to FB to share your words with others!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to hear about money & time saving meal tips.
ReplyDeleteHealthy eating on a small budget. :) I shared on facebook too.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to hear how you make time for yourself with 9 kids. And any tips you have for decorating your home on a budget.
ReplyDeleteI am a friend of Jen's and saw her FB post. If I can figure out how to do that, I'll do it too. lol I was very intrigued about the elderberry syrup and would love to see more on natural medicinals, and meatless high protein recipes.
ReplyDelete@Annika--did you not read the post about dying to yourself for your children? "Me time" is those middle of the night feedings! Lol. :)
ReplyDelete@Erin--thank you for the tip! The diapers don't save money if you have to wash the sheets twice a day!
Another question for Mama Cook, it seems eating healthily is just natural for you, how do you make sure you're getting all of the nutrients you need during pregnancy, since you're always pregnant?! Do you have a system?
Tristen, I thought of another tip from my oldest. I used disposable inserts, they hold a lot more and better than an entire disposable diaper. They used to sell them in 30 packs at Babies R Us for $3, but I haven't seen them in awhile. Basically a maxipad without the sticky (though you could try those for a cheap alternative) but what about gdiaper inserts if you can't find any?
ReplyDeleteAwesome advice! Thank you! I will check around. This is the first time I've run into a problem with the bum genius diapers, so I thought maybe mine were wearing out, having bought them used and all...I am so glad others have encountered the same issue. Thanks Erin!! You're a blessing!!
ReplyDeleteTRADITIONS! That's what you should write about! Ones that you grew up with and are keeping alive with your kids or ones that ou have started and hope will be carried on with your grandkids. I have always loved traditions and am curious to hear about what other people value and how they go about it!
ReplyDeleteLaura I just started following your blog and I love it! It's fun to see your great posts. I would love to hear about your bedtime routines and unique ways to keep from having toys overpower your house. Missing you at MOPS! Heather Landis
ReplyDeleteMore yummy recipes, and more biblically thoughtful encouragement! Love reading your blog! I would also love some of that harvest tea, looks so cozy!
ReplyDeleteHow are you able to have quality time with your husband? With only two babies I find it is already a miracle when we get to have a simple conversation.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, your blog is very encouraging for me. :-)
Oh, how to narrow down the subjects I'd love to see you post on... I'd love to hear how you involve your kids in ministry opportunities (daily or organized activities) and how you respond to people's negative comments about having a large family. We only have 4 kids and I don't know what to say! Thanks for all of your posts! I look forward to them!
