10th Street Block Party!

Today we were thrilled to attend our very first 10th Street Block Party! We ate some yummy kabobs, and met some really nice vendors including Weebeetees, Cheetahrama, and Geas Garden Jewelry. We also set up a small table outside for customers to try some of our special flavor iced tea. There were Blood Orange Hibiscus, Pineapple Green Tea, and Chocolate Mint Rooibos. What a lovely day to be working outdoors! :)

Dance venues around us

A4

We love it when customers share info with us. This morning Gia told us a few good places to go if you're ever in the mood to dance!

There are Club Love @ 179 Macdougal & 8th St, and Sullivan Room at Sullivan St. btw Bleecker & West 3rd St. A good website to keep up with all the events is Rhythmism.com. They have lots of day parties if you want some good music early.

And also, "Warm Up 2010" at P.S.1 kicks off next Saturday, July 3rd!!

Thanks Gia for the sources, hopefully we'll be seeing you at these places! :)

Kathy just stopped in for some Taro Bubble Tea. She told us she is a sculptor, so naturally we asked her if there is a website where we can see her work. She happily gave us the info. Thanks Kathy, we love your work! :)

This is Kathy's work:

Fiji & Lili' uokalani - New fruit blend teas from Serendipitea

Fiji (Green Tea) - A deep, broad & rewarding, lush organic green tea combined with exciting Wild Pineapple & Papaya.

Lili' uokalani (Black Tea) - A stunningly energetic tea, combines the lush tropical richness & colors of such flavors as peach, mango, apple, orange & guava. Also makes a superb iced tea!

We've tasted them and we're loving them both! Which one would you like to try a cuppa? :)
