Peppermint Tea
>> Monday, February 25, 2008

This is one of my new favorite teas since Red Robin has become the preferred place for an indulgent meal out. The gourmet burger and bottomless fries are my 'usual', but even if I order the incredible chicken-apple-walnut salad, I WILL OVEREAT. I know I'm overeating, I know I'm satiated, I know I should take half of my meal home......... but I clean my plate anyway.
So I come home feeling full and guilty. Here comes the peppermint tea! I really enjoy the taste of the tea, but mostly that it is traditionally used as a digestive aid, and combats that sensation of fullness.
Then, I can still take on some of whatever Mary is baking that night.
(I'm going to locate my self-control soon; I'm hoping it will start to uncover itself as soon as the weather gets warmer . . .)

Self Control usually shows back up when the backs of ones arm start swaying in the wind again.

I haven't been to a Red Robin in years, but I remember really liking it.
It's good to know that peppermint tea is good for over-indulging, not that I'd ever overindulge, of course. Roooiiiggghht. ;-Þ
