Peach Oo-la-long

What do you get when you mix a beret-wearing penguin, Oolong tea, and peach puree? A tasty beverage with a fun name and cute label.
Try it in the glass bottle -- it tastes better than the same stuff in plastic bottles. This continues to confirm my husband's theory that all beverages taste better when packaged in glass. However, I'm still a bit dubious about his claim that a square pizza tastes different than a round pizza from the same pizza shop.

I totally agree. Beverages do taste better from a glass bottle. But I also agree that round and square pizzas taste different. Every time I see a square pizza, I always think that it's not going to be any good.
I also think that fruit from a glass jar or plastic container is much better than from a can. I feel like there is a metallic aftertaste to most things from a can.
Yes, and I'll buy anything with a cute label. I'm all about the packaging. I guess that makes me a sucker. . .
i actually had this tea this weekend. not too shabby! not too jack shabby at all!
Ok, slack-style sista! I'm tired of seeing this photo every time I come with great winsome hopefulness to your blog. Post something new! Like. . .photos of your messy kitchen or your workspace or you holding the end of your nose up so you look like a piggy, or the socks you're wearing today.
I totally agree with Allyson. Now we all cant blog like I do but this is getting a little old. I know you are a VERY busy girl, but I have provided an entire plethora of ideas. If need be just simply post my blog up there. copy and paste. or just a link to send people to mine. or be orginal and blow us away with the worlds greatest blog!!!
Persecution! Persecution!
Ok looks like Allyson and I might have to start taking over this blog. Im going to use gorilla tactics to take control of this. Understand I am only doing this cause I care about family blogs. This is an act of love. I urge Jenn to start blogging and I will step back.
George Barris, creator of the Batmobile, transformed a used Lincoln convertible into the famous Batmobile in only three weeks and on a budget of $15,000.
The famous map of the Ponderosa Ranch featured in opening sequence of Bonanza is actually wrong. The artists placed Carson City to the north of Ponderosa rather than east. To fix this problem, producer David Dortort came up with the ingenious idea of turning the compass so that north faced to the corner rather than straight up.
The famous vista where Mr. Roarke used to greet his guests on Fantasy Island was none other than the Queen Anne’s cottage located deep in the Los Angeles Arboretum. It was built in the 1880’s and has appeared in over 200 movies and TV shows.
A total of 369 Dodge Chargers were used to play the General Lee car throughout the course of the Dukes of Hazzard series because the car took so much wear and tear.

Kenny Kramer, the inspiration for the wacky character “Cosmo Kramer” made famous by Michael Richards in Seinfeld, once lived across the hall from Seinfeld’s creator Larry David. He reportedly sold the rights to his character for $1,000 before Seinfeld hit Nielsen gold.
The creators of The Cosby Show actually changed the Huxatbles' professions so that they could realistically afford a Brownstone in Brooklyn Heights. On the original show proposal, the mother was supposed to be a plumber and the father was supposed to be a limo driver but the house was too expensive, so they made them into a lawyer and a doctor.
At the end of each Waltons show, the signature goodnight sequence was based on the real life experience of series creator Earl Hamner (who narrated each episode). It took about ten minutes for Earl’s seven brothers and sisters to bid each other goodnight until Earl’s father finally said, “That’s enough.”
Racoons wash everything before they eat it.
My blog minions have been informed of this situation and they will soon land on this island of Jenn. Allyson has her cleaning racoons ready to attack. It is all falling into place. Jenn, I urge you to blog before this goes too far. Once the minions and racoons start, they cannot be stopped.
I nearly forgot about those very cleanly racoons!!! :)
