Japanese Matcha Green Tea Powder! #FreedomSuperfoodsOrganicJapaneseMatchaGreenTeaPowder


Green Matcha Tea Powder is naturally packed full of antioxidants and EGCG's to benefit your health. I have been consuming Matcha tea powder on one form or other for over a year, in Lattes, smoothies  and even in baking. I especially love it in blended into soy milk daily with the addition of fruits. I have used it in muffins and even banana bread recipes. It does have caffeine in it so it does make a satisfying drink in the morning or before a workout. I also like to make the matcha tea the traditional way with hot water and a bit of sweetener for my after dinner drink. If you love tea, give matcha tea a try. It has a strong grass flavor but you get used to it after you drink it for awhile.



Try out this recipe!!



MATCHA GREEN TEA MUG CAKE

4 tbsp all purpose flour

1. Add all ingredients into an oversized microwave-safe mug. Mix with a small whisk until batter is smooth and uniform in color. Microwave for 1 minute. Let cake cool for a few minutes and then eat.

Emotional Intelligence 2.0: by Travis Bradberry and Jean Greaves Review!


This book is an overview of the Emotional Intelligence 2.0 book which is a book about the ability to recognize and acknowledge emotion i.e. Emotional Intelligence (EQ)

The book has 9 Key Takeaways:
1. EQ can be changed whereas IQ are less malleable
2. Personal competence portion of EQ is broken into categories where a person learns self-     awareness  and how to control emotions.
3. Social awareness and understanding of other people's emotions.
4. How to improve self-awareness through observing, examining causes and monitoring the     body for     responses to those emotions.
5. Developing and improving the decision-making process, via rational thought and making      sure you get enough sleep.
6. Learning how to observe others and how to interact with another person based on their         emotions.
7. Consistency with relationship management, learning how to be courteous to others and         learn how
    to better take feedback.
8. Certain trends with men and women regardless of age
9. Talks about workers at the high level of management versus those at lower level                   positions.

I found this Summary and Analysis to be very interesting. I think that this may be a book that would help anyone. Written in a style that used a lot of hypotheticals and conversational in a style that is easily understood as opposed to being very dry and boring. Just by reading this little bit of the book made me want to read more of it. I think that is what a good summary is...short, 26 pages, but informative.

If you are a manager that is looking for a better way to understand yourself and your workers, then I think you should read this and determine whether the actual book is what you may be looking for.

The Candy Counter Heiress by Lucy McConnell Amazon bestselling & award-winning author
Someday Reese Gates will own The Candy Counter at Kenworth's; but someday can't come fast enough when the manager threatens to bring in a national candy provider. Reese secretly takes matters into her own hands hoping to save her parents from additional worry and prove herself capable of running the company. Her deception deepens as she ropes computer guru Andy Edwards into helping her expand the business.  Reese wanted to shake things up, but she wasn't planning on her heart getting caught in the mix by Andy's stolen kisses. If she can hold it together until after Christmas, then she can reveal her successful online company and her feelings for Andy. Unfortunately for Reese, even the best laid plans can melt like chocolate.

Christmas Makeover by Cami Checketts Amazon bestselling author
Chelsea Jamison has been infatuated with Drew Stirling longer than she's loved playing basketball, high-top sneakers, and the Knicks. Unfortunately, all Drew sees is the kid who kicked his trash in the high school free throw contest and not the girl whose heart breaks into a fast dribble when he's near.
Drew makes an unexpected visit home to Echo Ridge and their friendship picks up where they left off as they scheme to make a teenaged boy's Christmas dreams come true. When Chelsea realizes she's fallen for her best friend, she wonders if there is any hope of a relationship with Drew or if she's stuck in buddy-status for life.


Hope for Christmas by Rachelle J. Christensen Amazon bestselling & award-winning author
Anika Fletcher hates Christmas--its promises of good tidings and hope for the future are as tinseled as the ornaments on Kenworth's Hope Tree. Despite her feelings, Anika wants to maintain her daughter's faith in the magic of the season and gladly accepts a second job working with the handsome Carlos Rodriguez to restore Kenworth's old fashioned soda fountain. Carlos is no stranger to hard times and slowly shares his life of light and joy with Anika as they work together. Just as her fragile soul begins to feel hope again, an ill-timed act of charity changes everything. Anika isn't sure who she can trust or if hope is worth nurturing--especially at Christmas when it's easy to enjoy a kiss and believe love can last longer than the season.

Soda Fountain Christmas by Connie E. Sokol Amazon bestselling author
Keira Kenworth has one focus this holiday season: save her father's old-time department store from bankruptcy. She is not focused on Tayton Wells, the tall, dark, and genius marketing guru from downtown New York, hired to make it happen. He is as doubtful that her nostalgic connect-the-town ideas will succeed as she is about his numbers-first plan. However, it's not just their different approaches that cause sparks to fly. Working together on a fast deadline to save the store before Christmas, the unspoken connection between them grows. But will the tough decisions they face drive them back to their separate worlds, or will they lead to the beginning of love?

 One Winter Night by Heather Tullis Amazon bestselling author
Jonah Owens thought moving to Echo Ridge to open his art gallery would solve all of his problems. The need to sell his grandma's house adds an unexpected complication. It would be easier if his neighbor didn't have all those farm animals.
Kaya Feidler's family has owned their land for nearly a hundred years--long before the neighbors were there. There's no way she's giving up the animal therapy business she's been struggling to make profitable. She gets a temp job helping Jonah in the gallery. Spending time together is a recipe for romance, but can they overcome their own hangups to be more than friends?

"Wallace's writing is brilliant and engrossing.” 

— Crimespree Magazine

Book summary:  Writing under a man’s name, Josephine Breaux is the finest reporter at Washington’s Morning Clarion. Using her wit and charm, she never fails to get the scoop on the latest Union and Confederate activities. But when a rival paper reveals her true identity, accusations of treason fly. Despite her claims of loyalty to the Union, she is arrested as a spy and traitor.
To Josephine’s surprise, she’s whisked away to the White House, where she learns that President Lincoln himself wishes to use her cunning and skill for a secret mission in New Orleans that could hasten the end of the war. For Josephine, though, this mission threatens to open old wounds and expose dangerous secrets. In the middle of the most violent conflict the country has ever seen, can one woman overcome the treacherous secrets of her past in order to secure her nation’s future?
