Steeped in quirkiness
Every workplace has its own culture — you know, what makes your office distinctly different, including the rules you follow to get along with everyone. I was thinking about office culture this morning when I walked in and glanced at Richard’s office. See, the boss (that’s him) is in Europe for a couple of weeks. Yesterday, we received an enormous UPS shipment of tea, and the boxes were crowding out our reception area. So of course, by the time I got in this morning, most of those boxes had been moved into his office — the biggest space in here with the fantastic view of the Roaring Fork River. That’s the sort of he’s-gone-so-let’s-use-his-space-as-temporary-storage move that happens in most workplaces, I think. So I decided to compile a few facts about office culture at two leaves and a bud that … Continue reading

You learn a lot about tea when you start a job at a tea company. In my first month here at two leaves and a bud, I’ve tried to pronounce “Tamayokucha,” learned that some chai teas really are better than others (but I’m not naming names), and been told more than once to refill the electric kettle. So then Bess mentions the new loose leaf tea we’re going to be carrying — plenty of different kinds, two of which are Genmai Matcha and Hoji Cha. Great, I think. Another couple of teas I can’t pronounce. But catching a glimpse of these varieties in little sample bags around the office, it’s clear there’s something really different about these two. Genmai Matcha, Japanese for “brown rice tea,” is exactly that: green tea combined with roasted brown rice. So, you’ve got your tea … Continue reading
Feeling fluish?
I shouldn’t have to tell you about the health benefits of tea. People have been reporting on that for years now — they love to throw around terms like “antioxidants” and “flavonoids.” Here’s some information from the Tea Council of the U.S.A., Inc., in case you want to steep a cuppa tea and sit down for some feel-good reading about what you’re drinking. [Read: Drink tea and feel smug.] But, let’s get serious for a minute — you can hardly switch on the evening news lately without hearing about the encroaching flu season. I’m going to take the advice from the Centers for Disease Control and get my flu shot as soon as I can, and I think you should do the same. And forget about colds — with a daughter in daycare I can’t wash my hands often enough … Continue reading
