I'm freezing all the time and am not a fan of the cold. Take care and stay warm. We are just starting a warming trend with 70s during the day and 50s at night which is much nicer.

A matcha hit provides 34mg of caffeine, which is the same as a cup of brewed coffee and half the amount of an espresso, however, the tea's buzz is much more energising and longer-lasting.Jan 22, 2016kathyinozarkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01644138355524729156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6636682361472621776.post-52299295472567081152020-02-13T10:54:26.326-06:002020-02-13T10:54:26.326-06:00Good morning, I did not know that matcha was in th...Good morning, I did not know that matcha was in the morning thunder.
