Nadim NajmMore Posts move over Starbucks, Debbie’s Tea Latte’s are here!

Our team has decidedly taken less trips to starbucks to start off 2009. Why, you might ask? No, not the economy. Not trying to slim down or hold to any New Year resolutions.

Two words: Debbie Pflieger

Debbie has introduced her own version of the Tea Latte to the office… and it’s AMAZING! It’s become a morning tradition around our office and every now and then, an afternoon indulgence. For the past 10 years Debbie has been our stellar Customer Care Manager, and she definitely takes great care of us here at the office!

If you want Deb’s recipe, shoot her an email at debbie@simplyyouthministry.com. And while you’re at it, if you’ve ever talked to her on the phone or through email, shoot her a note to tell her how great she is. Take it from us, she’s awesome!
