We recently watched the newly released to DVD movie, The Best Of Me. We were going to have a girls night, but some of our lovely children (my own included) quickly put the kibosh on that idea. My son, apparently, had been wanting to see the movie- which I doubted, until he gave me the entire plot and told me what he thought was going to happen. The other instigator stood rapt, and we mothers relented, and it became less a girl’s movie date then a what-have-you.
We all enjoyed the movie, it is great timing for Valentine’s Day. If you haven’t seen it yet, it would be a great “date night” movie for you and yours to watch (if you can get the kids to go to bed, anyway!) My thoughts, in hindsight- don’t tell them you have any sort of plan without them. Life, of course, stops as soon as their heads hit the pillows or are on play dates etc etc.
We also got to try some cool tea- it came in this little circle, with little sugar gems. You added boiled water, steeped it, and strained it in it’s own special container. Very fancy. We tried the Teavana limited edition First Blush Tea which was specifically designed for Valentine’s Day, featuring naturally scented Jasmine green tea blended with floral orchid oolong and complemented by luscious strawberries, crisp rhubarb and effervescent undertones of bubbly rosé. It smelled like floral blueberries, if you can imagine that. It was a nice aroma.
In each cup of Teavana tea you can find delicious and exotic flavors, and is the perfect pairing to a night in with your girlfriends or with your significant other. It didn’t take much time, and brewing loose leaf tea is easier than you think: add 1.5 teaspoons of First Blush tea per each 8 oz. serving and steep in 175 degree water for 2 minutes.

The Best of Me is now out on Blu-ray and DVD, so make sure you get your copy now.
Based on the #1 New York Times Best Seller from celebrated author Nicholas Sparks comes this tender, romantic drama about the timeless power of love. When former high school sweethearts Dawson and Amanda (James Marsden and Michelle Monaghan) meet at a loved one’s funeral 20 years after tragedy separated them, their love is reignited. As they recall and relive the past, they come to a deeper understanding about the choices they’ve made. Also starring Luke Bracey and Liana Liberato, and featuring beautiful scenery along with music by Lady Antebellum, The Best of Me is a powerfully romantic story of love, hope and second chances.
For the Home Entertainment release, the “Tears of Joy” Edition Blu-ray and DVD will include an all-new storyline and “Storybook” Alternate Ending so Amanda and Dawson finally get that second chance at love.
I’m not a tea person but the movie sounds wonderful. I’m adding it to my “to watch” list.
We saw the movie in theaters. It’s great. The tea sounds good too!
The teas sounds wonderful. I really enjoy brewing my own tea and seeing what is actually in it.
That tea looks interesting! I will have to share this with my mom, I bet she will love it.
The Best of Me… definitely going to make me creak down and cry! I will have to make a cup of teavana and popcorn and watch when the hubby lets me choose a movie!
