Pukka Chai Tea

Now I don’t know about you but I’m not a very adventurous person when it comes to trying new things out, although I wish I was. I know I’m probably super late with trying out this one product, but I blame it all on being a lame old lady who never wants to step out of her comfort zone. A while ago I was at a friend’s house and I was offered a hot beverage as it was absolutely freezing cold that day (I should say everyday as I live in London) and I was told about how good chai tea was. So I decided to give it a whirl as I was feeling pretty spontaneous that day and MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS.. it was so good. 

If you are yet to try chai tea, please don’t make the same mistake as me in being too scared to, it won’t bite I promise it is absolutely delicious. If you are wondering what the ingredients of chai tea is then wonder no more as I have the perfect description (taken from the box) “Pukka original chai, organic black tea gently spiced with cinnamon, cardamom and ginger”. In the box you get 20 sachets and all you need to do is infuse the tea bag in freshly boiled water with however many teaspoons of sugar you desire. 



You can also add honey and a splash of milk “for a cup of pure joy” You can find this specific box of chai tea as well as Pukka’s other tea products in Tesco. 



Grab your cuppa, get on that sofa and indulge in unhealthy amounts of crappy T.V as it is Sunday and that's how we do it in my household.

Lots of love.. Mx

Welcome To My Blog..

Okay so I have absolutely no idea how to start a blog so I’m just going to write whatever pops up in my head (chocolate) okay maybe I shouldn't write absolutely everything otherwise this will probably turn into a food blog. I guess a smarter approach to starting a blog would be introducing myself, my names Marina Tilahun, I am 20 years old and I live in London. Is it just me or did that sound a bit like the “about me” section for a dating profile.. Sorry about that, moving on.

I decided to start a blog as one of my new year’s resolutions is to do more things that I’m too shy to do, and this is definitely one of them. Another one of my new year’s resolutions is to actually try and complete a new year’s resolution for once in the 20 years of my life. I must say I’m very proud of myself for actually doing this as throwing yourself into the blogging world is actually quite scary. You never know who is going to be reading your blogs or who you might come across, there are tons of weirdo’s out there and I know I’m a bit of a weirdo but I mean a weirdo past normal.

(Oh just get to the point Marina) What my blog will be about... well mainly my interests like photography, fashion, make-up, events, TV shows/films, food and MAYBE (sorry for shouting) some motivational blog posts. Right I think I have taken up enough of your time with my rambling so I should probably go, thanks so much for sticking around and reading my first blog post and hopefully I can get to know each and every single one of you. Happy New Year everyone I hope this year you too do something that you're too scared to do.. trust me it feels great to do something you’re absolutely petrified of doing. If I can do it so can you.. I BELIEVE IN YOU! Smiley face, yes I just typed smiley face and no I’m not going to erase it.

Lots of love.. Mx
