And I must say I’m flattered and suprised that this humble blog got included in the list! I feel compelled to keep posting more regularly now. So in the coming holiday period when work has died down I’ll start posting some reviews I’ve been stacking up since autumn.

Healthy Organic Food

November 28th, 2009

It’s not often I point out good sites but after trying some nice organic food from an online caterer I thought I’d share my experiences.

Normally I don’t go in for organic but a friend decided to have a dinner party (with plenty of tea) from Healthy Chef Creations. It’s all part of a new years resolution diet I plan on starting – early but I start as I mean to go on!

I wasn’t expecting great things as I rarely use online caterers, but – woah. It was nice! When I say nice that’s an understatement. Considering this food was delivered it was incredibly fresh and tasty. We had cups of green and black tea on hand to wash it all down with as we tucked into our meals.

What I also like about them is that all the food is healthy and organic. So if you’re planning on a natural weight loss diet then this could be the magic bullet. They know their food and their nutrition so you won’t be forced to eat rabbit food or plastic just to achieve natural weight loss.

A resounding 5/5.

Horrifying Ommission

May 19th, 2009

I was conducting some gentle perusing of the internet when I came across a web directory at searchsight.com. A web directory similar to many others offering search of their huge database and also enabling people to submit their site.

So I thought – nothing ventured nothing gained. I’ll add Wonders of Tea. So as is the custom with such sites I go to the submission page shown below.

No tea

Notice anything missing? No tea category!

How on earth can these people miss one of the greatest beverages ever conceived and yet they’ll include muddy water (aka coffee)?

Absolutely unbelievable.
