Yogi tea: the tea that says nice things to you!
By: erincarrasco on: Nov 15,2008 In: Food and Drink, Product ReviewsMy husband sent me this website about tea, because he knows that I love tea. In fact one of my nickname was teabags in high school-ok perverts not for the reason you think! One innocent day in grade 11 I brought a travel mug to school filled with tea. I used to walk to school [...]

By: erincarrasco on: Aug 18,2008 In: Food and Drink, Top 10 ListsSo I have had a passion for wine for many years.

About Erin Carrasco
Erin Carrasco (Real Tech Mom) is a mom of a beautiful baby boy born in March. She also looks after her other two kids (Mia and Keely, her two cats) and her wonderful husband of four years. It has taken some time getting used to not being at home every day, but being a mom is a different type of job and I admire the moms who get to be with their kids every day!
Moms like me know that just because everyone says you should do it, or not do it does not make it set in stone. For us dinner is never the same time every night and because of my husband’s job, our lives are ruled by overtime, extra overtime, travel and the crack blackberry. I am not only a mom, I’m a woman and human being. Believe it or not I do enjoy a lot more than just being a mom! Some of my passions are a little geeky but still they’re me none the less.
