Not too long ago, I wrote a post called Tea Time, Storage Solutions in which I offered up a variety of ways to keep one's tea bags contained. The post went over well enough with all but one crowd--the loose tea leaf drinkers of the world. "Where are the storage solutions for people who don't have
Certain foods have been shown to have anticancer activity. This is expertly explained in the popular book, Anticancer - a New Way of Life, by David Servan-Schreiber M.D., PhD. (Viking Press). Most cruciferous plants, such as broccoli, have been tested and shown to destroy cancer at the cellular level. Fermenting vegetables is another way to release phytonutrients and boost the healing nature of your diet. Broccoli is considered a superfood due to its rich supply of phytonutrients. In particular, testing has shown anticancer benefits in one of its nutrients, sulforaphane. Perfect Pickler® has been developing recipes to promote at-home fermenting for aiding both healthy and recovering diets for over 10 years. Harnessing the power of microbes to pre-digest food with powerful enzymes through fermentation is yet another way to help in a therapeutic diet you can make at home. Enjoy this healthy and delicious Broccoli and Bean Sprouts in Green Tea Brine with only a few ingredients. You’ll be amazed at the complexity of flavors and textures from bean sprouts and slaw. NEW! For an additional anti-cancer boost, let’s use green tea as the brine base. Green tea also contains a powerful anticancer component: catechins. Green tea adds a subtle astringent taste to the recipe. Combining fermentation with targeted superfoods is another way to make homemade health in a pickle—the Perfect Pickler® way. Let’s put these grab-n-go ingredients into a ferment for a super quick and tasty pickle! Prep Time: 15 mins (plus tea steeping time) Jar Size: 1 quart Ingredients - You can mix and vary the proportions, plan on about 1 lb. total veggies for this recipe 1 package broccoli slaw 1 cup mixed bean sprouts (pictured) or mung bean sprouts. 2 scallions, thinly sliced on the bias. 1 TBS. spice blend of choice: pickling spice, Herbes de Provence, bouquet garni 1 TBS. Celtic Sea Salt® or other premium brand 2 cups spring water 2 green tea bags Directions Make 2 cups of green tea by steeping 2 teas bags in boiled water for about 10 minutes. Squeeze bags into tea then discard. Rinse broccoli slaw, sprouts and drain. Add scallions and spice blend then toss. Pack mixture into a clean 1 quart jar, gently tamping down as you go until 2 inches from jar lip Make brine by dissolving salt in tea (TIP: put liquid & salt in another jar, secure lid, shake well). Pour brine over vegetables; gently wiggle jar to release all air bubbles. Continue filling until approximately ½ inch below the lip of the jar.Press brine overflow cup into jar until just level with jar rim. (TIP: you may want to do this with jar in your sink as some brine should spill over). Allow cup to float as you clean off veggie/seasoning debris from jar rim to ensure good seal. Twist on Perfect Pickler® lid until just hand snug. Pour tap water into airlock to the max line and gently twist into lid. Place in cool location (68-74 degrees) and wait patiently for 4 days! Photo above: From left; pickling spice, broccoli slaw, mixed bean sprouts (Photo by B. Hettig) You can adjust for more spice blend after fermentation is complete by removing from jar and mixing in more and then repack.

Carrie Keplinger shares the best way to put together a tea station so your tea will always be easily accessible.
To continue all things baby around here with the launch of our new Baby Collection and before my maternity leave, I wanted to share with you some photos from my “sweet as honey” themed baby shower! It all went so fast and I wish I could do it all again! I’ve thought about this day for so long. It was filled with many of my favorite things- bees & honey, flowers, lace, lots of tea, amber glass, chalkboard signs, and vintage china, but most importantly, my incredible friends and family who made the day amazing and memorable. Here are some details from the day… One of my favorite parts was putting together the flower arrangements to go down the center of the long table! I went with faux flowers so I could make them far in advance. Most of the flowers came from Hobby Lobby and Michaels then I arranged them in vintage milk glass compotes, hobnail vases, and a thrifted white teapot. I just love the look of mismatched china! For the past 6 months or so, my Mom, my friend Dana and I were on the hunt for vintage plates, saucers, and tea cups. It was so much […]
