Grit Tea

I take a calcium supplement daily, and in my recent jar, several of my capsules broke open, showering the bottom of the supplement jar with calcium fallout.

I reached the bottom of my jar today and thought it might not be a bad idea to take the one remaining capsule (a daily dose is four) and stir the rest of the powdered calcium into my tea.

Turns out, it was a bad idea. That type of calcium, for whatever reason, doesn't dissolve in water. So I wound up taking two sips of the tea (with the film of calcium floating on top and chunks of calcium swimming within) and tossing the rest out.

Because you know what? I'm a grownup. I don't have to take all my calcium if I don't want to!
