Gift 16: Art of Tea for Damien

Posted by Siel in caffeine,challenges,emeraldcity (Sunday June 8, 2008 at 11:38 am)

[Part of my challenge to give something away every day for 29 days, again]

A little White Coconut Creme tea from Art of Tea — along with a couple honey sticks — goes to Streetsblog LA‘s Damien Newton, as a thank you for being a great contributor to the Emerald City blog.

Damien’s guest posts were mostly about HOT (high occupancy toll) lanes, which have been a hot topic of discussion lately, as Metro’s recently accepted federal funding to try out HOT lane programs.

Damien also made a case against the summer gas tax break plan — which both Clinton and McCain backed. Most recently, he interviewed Erik Knutzen of the blog Homegrown Evolution about urban gardening and farming.

Damien happens to be one of those strange people who drinks tea but not coffee :P Art of Tea, which I’ve written about in more detail here, offers very yummy teas and tisanes that’re mostly organic and sometimes fair trade certified — though I wish the company’d be more clear about which teas are certified fair trade and organic and which are not to make my shopping process easier. If they did, I’d shop there more often –
