One Girl Trucking Blog

Everything about the One Girl Trucking blog is amazing. I've been reading it for a couple years now.

The latest video will catch your interest, but there is so much more to this trucker!

I love this drive between Littlefield AZ and St George UT. If you ever get the chance take a ride! Someday I would love to go explore this area. So much beauty to look at if you just slow down!

I keep coming back to this video of her ducks. It's so peaceful...

Kataluma Chai Tea Cafe in Colorado Mills Mall

Kataluma Chai Co.

I used to work next door to Kataluma Chai Co. at the Colorado Mills Mall. I would count the hours until lunch to order their delicious bagel sandwiches.

During those hours, people would tour my store, sipping down the Kataluma Chai drinks and saying "YUM." There's only so much a gal can take!

My favorite Bagel Sandwich: double turkey on the Parmesan bagel with Pesto cream cheese and cucumber, sprouts and red bell pepper.

Oh yes, and make sure to get it TOASTED...

Could hardly wait long enough to take a photo before chowing down this sandwich! It had been a long time since the last time I'd visited. And the Orange Sencha Tea (Two Leaves and a Bud) hit the spot!

I visited again a few weeks later with a huge craving for a milkshake. Raspberry Truffle Milkshake, that is. [happy sigh]

The owner LaNell Sonner gets a huge RAVE Review for her attention to detail and love for her customers' experience. She makes putting together creative, artistic displays look easy.

When traffic gets slow, they hand out free samples and then shoppers decide to come in and order a drink. That tells you ALL you need to know.

They have free Wi-Fi and it's nice to sit and read or do some work. I always feel welcome.

Lovely Displays of Chai Mixes

Da Vinci and Monin syrups to make flavored drinks
at home too.

You'll end up getting Two Leaves and a Bud Teas for your Grummy or Mom. (You'll feel left out unless you get a box of tea for yourself too.)

The Kataluma Chai mixes are the ideal gift for anyone. For any occasion, not only Christmas gifts, and the packaging sure is pretty. Gift Certificates available too.

CHAI MIX FLAVORS
Bourbon Vanilla Chai - No bourbon, just a rich soothing vanilla chai, a simply delectable vanilla latte
Chocolate Comfort - creamy comforting chocolate with those wonderful chai spices
Chocolate Mint - amazing mint aroma & taste that comes alive with chocolate flavor
Cookies N Cream - think chocolate cookies with a vanilla center

White Raspberry - that plate of raspberries only pour on the white chocolate
Traditional Spiced - the best creamy cup of wonderful you ever tasted in a chai
Decaf Spiced - that same rich creamy chai flavor only in decaf

MALL SURVIVAL GUIDE
I recommend you start or end your Colorado Mills Mall shopping trip at Kataluma Chai Co. Cafe.

In fact, get all your year-round gifts there. Make life easy. Find gifts, relax with Chai, go home de-stressed.

But there are some awesome stores like Eddie Bauer Outlet and Super Target (freshly remodeled). So if you MUST shop at the mall, make sure to end up at the cafe to regather your wits!

Rasputina Covering Heart's Barracuda

I'm rediscovering all the CDs I misplaced while working 3 jobs.
Or more accurately, I wasn't around to HIDE THEM after exclaiming:
"do NOT take these CDs out of the house! I spent forever finding them at CDBABY!"

durrrrr.

I will soothe my ruffled feathers by listening to Rasputina.


Rasputina – Barracuda (Live Cover) from the Radical Recital CD. LOVE THE ENTIRE CD!
