Celebrate Valentine's Day the Michigan Way
The day for lovers, sweethearts, paramours and chocoholics is drawing near. Like it, love it, or hate it, Valentine's Day has become an annual tradition. As you celebrate the holiday, consider making your day special with something from Michigan.

Today's giveaway is kind of different but very cool - it's a private tea cupping for up to 6 people from Light of Day Organics that will include matcha ceremonial green tea! Light of Day teas are grown organically and biodynamically, then hand-harvested and packaged with great care. Click through for a video from Angela where she shows you how to brew an ideal cup of tea!
