It’s no secret that I love T2’s Peppermint Tea. Unfortunately, if you’re as big a fan as I, you’ll already know that it’s been out of stock for weeks now. So I was forced to try Twinings’ version as an (okay.. just) substitute. But not before I was down to my last T2 teabag and had been refreshing the T2 web page on my computer on a daily basis as well as visiting my local store at least weekly.
A miracle happened over the weekend. Both teabags and loose leaf forms were back in stock.
So I ordered enough to get me through the next 6 months as well as a box of New York Breakfast teabags. How could I resist a breakfast tea that promises the taste of pancakes?
We went to the Opera House over the weekend too. To see ‘Noodlenut’ at the Playhouse. This view from the forecourt never gets old.
There was an interactive area in the foyer about the role of twine and string in our world. A short video touched on their use as well as how they can be recyled.
The tent below the flat screen was made entirely of recycled twines and children were encouraged to sit under the tent and add to it. Nestled away in a picture window next to the tent were circular frames upon which twine from a massive ball could be wound to create beautiful patterns.
Both stations were really clever ideas to keep the younger member of the audience busy as they waited for the theatre to open after lunch.
Going to the Opera House to see something always has a sense of occasion and we make it a point to have a meal (and a beverage) at the cafe before the performances that we see.

‘Noodlenut’ was great fun for all who attended. There were jokes for the adults, hilarious video segments, traditional story telling as well as a lot of gross out humour that Preschooler SSG really loved. Frank Woodley just gets it when it comes to making people of all ages laugh.
Do you have a favourite T2 tea?
Are you a fan of the matinee peformance? Do you make a day of it and eat out for lunch too?
