Everyone is a fan of something, right? So why not show your “fan-ness” by going to the Pixie Mate page on Facebook.com. Pixie Mate has over 100 fans, but they need more. The process is easy: go to the page, click on “become a fan” and you’re done.

If there was anything you could do to improve your standing in the Facebook world, this would be it… Seriously, stop reading this blog and become a fan!
OK, we all have them, or are working on them for 2010. I’m talking about new year resolutions. What are you going to do different than last year, or better? For us Mate’ people, perhaps we should have our own, as we are a very special breed. I’ve listed a few, but feel free to post a comment to add to the list.
Again, post a comment and let’s make a real resolution mix…
This morning I reached for the mate and find that it is GONE! AHH… OK, what to do, I think to myself. Tea bag, I must still have some tea bags… Thankfully, they are still there in my hiding place. With company in town over the holidays, a new important to do item: BUY MORE MATE!

Have a wonderful new year!

Imagine making your point in only 140 characters? Could you do it? For example, my first sentence was 91 characters. Twitter, an online micro-blogging application, forces its member users to post only 140 characters of information. That’s it, that’s all you got - 140 words and spaces. Yet, this communication medium has taken the internet by storm! By the end of 2009, Twitter is expected to have over 18 million users. The great news: some of those members are mate’ drinkers!
Below are a collection of “tweets”, or Twitter feeds from tea/mate’ lovers:

I used to be a coffee drinker. But I remember the moment of awakening… I was in college, half way through my tenure as a hard core vegetarian and environmental action groupie.

Someone poured a small teacup for me from a beautiful ceramic teapot. The exotic aromas instantly captivated my senses - cardamom, ginger, cloves… The spices awakened me. I went on to travel after college, steeping in the aromas of different places and flavors of different countries. Fifteen years later, I’ve come a long way, but the aroma of Pixie Mate gets me up every morning, infusing my senses with the memories of past travels and the adventures yet to come. My husband wakes up before me and in the simple act of making tea for us, he shows me his love. There is no better way to start my morning than cupping my hands around my warm mug of aromatic Pixie. Thank you Pixie!
