How To Prepare Delicious Chai Tea

The truth about making money from home

When it comes to "hot drinks," chai tea is certainly among the most popular, but drinking chai can get to be expensive (a problem a lot of people deal with when it comes to drinking coffee as well), and the main reason why this is the case is that chai simply "does not taste the same" when they make it at home; if you love chai, but are tired of spending so much money to buy it, here are the things you will need to know for making great chai at home.

As is the case with any good tea, a good cup of chai tea starts with the tea leaves, and if you want your tea to taste good, you will need to make sure the tea leaves are good; your best bet for finding good chai tea leaves is to buy loose leaf tea from a local shop that prepares its own mix (realizing, of course, that you will also need to buy a diffuser - which are typically under $10 - as well).

After you have brought water close to a boil, put about a tablespoon of tea leaves into the diffuser per every six ounces of water you are using, and dunk the diffuser into the tea, stirring it for a few seconds, and then allowing it to steep for about five minutes.

After five minutes have passed, you can remove the diffuser from the water (giving it a few dunks first, if you like a slightly stronger flavor), and can then sample the tea to gauge the taste; add heated cream and honey/sugar to desired taste, and enjoy!

When you use this approach for preparing your chai tea, you will be able to enjoy a delicious, relaxing beverage, without having to pay the exorbitant prices charged for a cup of chai at a coffee house; in the long run, this will save you quite a bit of money, and will make your time a whole lot easier!

Tips For Registering For Wedding Presents

The truth about making money from home

One of the most exciting aspects of your wedding will be registering for wedding presents, as this will allow you and your soon-to-be spouse to choose all the things you want to have in your house once you are married - but as exciting as it can be to register for your wedding presents, it can also be a stressful process, and can certainly be a point of contention, if you do not go about this process in the proper manner.

When registering for presents, one mistake a lot of people make is that they only target inexpensive items - with the tought being that no one will have a desire to spend more than $25 or $50 on a wedding present - but you should realize that there will be plenty of people who will be thrilled to purchase something nice for you, so don't be afraid to register for some of the pricier items that you would love to have in your home.

It will also be important for you to be aware of the fact that registering for wedding presents should be done (in equal parts!) by both people, and this is important to realize, as it is one of the aspects that can cause more contention than just about anything else; if there will be items that both of you will likely be using, make sure the two of you are in agreement on what the particulars of these items will be - and while each of you will certainly have to compromise here and there, you should try to make as many decisions as possible together.

And finally, make sure you are not simply registering for things for the sake of registering for things, as there are many people who run out of things they actually want, and continue registering for items anyway. If all the items you have registered for have already been purchased by the time someone gets around to shopping for your present, they will be more than happy to give you money as a gift, instead of giving you an item - and as you will just be starting out on your new life with your spouse, money will always be a present that is well worth receiving!

Tips For Resolving Conflicts With Extended Family

The truth about making money from home

There are a lot of things that go into the process of resolving conflicts, but when it comes to conflicts with extended family, these "lots of things" can grow to include even more elements; after all, conflicts with a close friend or family member must be resolved, or frustration and bitterness can end up festering until it compromises the relationship, but when it comes to extended family, there are plenty of times when it is best to simply leave the conflict alone.

One of the main things that can cause "conflicts that really don't matter" to still end up getting dragged on for ages is the fact that neither side particularly wants to be "wrong"; when you are dealing with a conflict with an extended family member, however - that is, someone you rarely see, and with whom you rarely interact - realize that it is often better to allow yourself to "be wrong," even if you know that you are honestly right.

On top of realizing that it is okay to "be wrong" when it comes to conflict with an extended member of your family, it will often also be important for you to be willing to simply drop it; it can be easy for unsolved conflicts to remain a factor because someone keeps bringing it up, but make sure you are not the one bringing up the conflict in the future - and if your counterpart brings it up, do your best to change the subject right away.

And finally, when you are dealing with an unsolved conflict with an extended family member, you have to be willing to move on; this means that you need to move on in your interactions with this person, as well as moving on in your head!

Dealing with conflict with anyone is never any fun - let alone when you are dealing with someone you see every once in a while, but do not see often enough for the conflict to "have to be resolved" - but when you take this approach to handling your conflict, you will have no problem moving on, without this conflict continuing to affect you!
