You know, if I FINALLY give up my Starbucks Soy No-Water Chai-Tea Latte habit, I could use the money I save ($30+ A WEEK!) for yoga classes NOT AT MY GYM, where I can practice my headstands and handstands and other yummy advanced yoga poses…. Just saying….

I think Starbucks would have to go BANKRUPT for me to quit that horribly terrible drink. OR, I’d have to permanently crazy-glue my lips together…. Although, if I crazy-glued my lips together, there’d be nothing stopping me from snorting it through desperate nostrils. Nothing stopping me from caressing its smooth, ‘licious exterior with my cheek and inhaling its heavenly AROMA. Yummmm….

Seriously, I look at my Buddha belly — and WHAT A BUDDHA BELLY IT IS — and I don’t think anything like “MIRACULOUS! WOMB! BABIES!” No, Gorgeouses, I think “Chai Tea Latte.”

If I FINALLY give up my chai tea latte, I know I could lose the mushy Buddha belly, and twelve other things. CHECK THIS WEEK’S THURSDAY THIRTEEN!

(By the way, you know the worst part? I get emails all the time from people MAD AT ME for introducing them to the CHAI because I’m ALWAYS talking about it — because always trying to QUITIT…. And, I’m, like, EXCUSE ME? Don’t say I didn’t WARN YOU!)

THIRTEEN THINGS I COULD DO IF I QUIT MY CHAI-TEA LATTE ADDICTION

1. LOSE MY BUDDHA BELLY once and for all!

2. I could become a REAL tea connoisseur….

3. I could save money for SO MANY YOGA CLASSES (those things are EXPENSIVE), and start practicing advanced poses like Vrschikasana (Scorpion) again….

4. I could help heal the PLANET: me quitting Starbucks would mean 365+ less STARBUCKS CUPS used a YEAR!

5. I could obsess about OTHER THINGS…, like…philosophy, literature, art….

6. My Rascal might sleep better with less caffeine in his breastmilk!? (I’LLTRYANYTHING!) Seriously, I should call this website CHAITEA MONKEY because my little monkeys are practically MADE of CHAI TEA — if babies ARE what their mothers eat while preggers!

7. I could save TONS OF MONEY to buy a pair of Monkey’s pink sparkly shoes……for MYSELF!

8. I could be a good YOGINI and practice “non-attachment” — relinquishing the sugary-spicy “attachment,” once and for all….

9. No more indigestion, anxiety, mood swings? YES, I attribute ALL these FABULOUS things to that evil sugar-laden CHAIIII….

10. I could start eating a HEALTHY BREAKFAST again (instead of starving until I get to a Starbucks!)….

11. Imagine a life FREE OF STARBUCKS…. I mean, REALLY! I can hardly….

12. I could try out some other tea shops or cafes….?


The Red Tea Box in Toronto…. Soooooo cute!

13. MINDENNNNNNNNN would love it if I quit and used all the money I’d save for a decent cat bed….

Everyone asks me why I have to quit this dang drink. I mean, what’s the big deal? Well, now you know. It’s just too much of a crutch. And, I REALLY want to be healthy and feel great. So, as of RIGHT NOW, I’m going to try to quit — for the 1,235,654,543,909,987th time — WISH ME LUCK!

Oh, and HEY GORGEOUSES! There’s a CONTEST OVER AT GOODIES! CHECK IT!!!
