Aromatherapy Tea




This morning I felt much better (thank you for all the good wishes, xo) so I went foraging around my garden for an herb combination to brew for tea. I came up with lemon verbena and peppermint. I used around 20 mint leaves, and 10 to 15 lemon verbena leaves and made a fine pot of tea. I think this will be good iced too.

Here's to health, and a happy weekend ...

Good for you for taking good care of yourself with that amazing-looking pot of tea.

So glad you are feeling better!

Thanks also for leaving 2 lovely comments for me. For some reason I have not yet rectified - your blog is not feeding current posts onto my blog list. Will sort it out soon I hope.Thought you had gone away for a long time...but no... its just a tech prob!
I grew up in a town with streets lined with Jacaranda trees (Grafton, Australia: population approx 17,000 last I looked). We had an annual festival which for a child is magic...everything was mauve for a week...even the ice cream!
