Odd News Roundup

I have mentioned it before, but I love odd news.  It just makes me happy!  Here are a few I've seen recently

Police Helicopter searches for people "engaged in outdoor sexual activity."  Ha!  Don't be gettin frisky outdoors or the PoPo will come lookin' for ya!  It's kind of a hilarious article too. 

A Man Wants to Divorce over Washing Machine Spats.  Well, there's really so much more to this, but a washing machine?  Really?  Man, there's like, no hope for me then!

Urine Soaked Eggs a Spring Taste Treat - Gross.

Man kills wife + dogs after one of the dogs poops in the house.  Really, just a tragic situation. 

IKEA powers their Portland, OR store with solar.  This is more awesome than odd!

Obese Pets Forced to Fight Flab for Charity.  My grandparents had a 35lb cat when I was a kid.  That thing coulda used this program!

EDIT – One more that I just saw!! 

Trapped Basset Hound Calls Police – Such a sweet, hilarious story.

Good Earth Sweet + Spicy Tea

I am a big tea fan.  I love flavored teas.  Not the raspberry tea that you get at restaurants that comes from soda taps, but brewed teas that are flavored from the various ingredients.  One of my all-time favorite teas is an iced Orange Spice tea. 

I had been searching for this perfect Orange Spice tea blend for a while.  Good Earth's Original Sweet and Spicy Tea is my ideal!  Good Earth says: "An aromatic sweet cinnamon tea with hints of orange.  Our full flavored signature blend offers up a rich, spicy fragrance followed by a sweet, warming, clean taste without added sugar." 

I'm not huge on hot tea, unless it's really cold or I'm sick.  Since I'm not sick and it's been about a billion degrees here lately, I chose to make a big ol' pitcher of iced tea.  I was pleasantly surprised  – no, scratch that.  I was totally stoked to find out I had my perfect Orange Spice tea!!  In fact, we've consumed half the box of Good Earth Sweet & Spicy tea since we cracked it open over the weekend.
