I just filled two eye-catching glass glasses with Fresh Mint Tea from fresh mint springs, lump sugar and green tea as a base, it’s aimed of Moroccan Mint Tea Moroccan mint tea has become an almost sacred ceremony as the country national drink and according to the source that “The Moroccans enjoyed the medicinal qualities of mint and it grew in abundance in the country, so it was only fitting that they add fresh mint springs to this new tea drink to create Mint Tea” Moroccans take so much pride in their tea, they often will be in competition with even their closest friends. The tea is then served in glass glasses that resemble American shot glasses. (By Mary Caliendo as tea editor) The fact, its pretty refreshing of having fresh mint tea to comfort me of typing this post for Click event , theme July Coffee and Tea , host by Bee and Jai at Jugalbadi Though the recipe is very simple yet becoming my favourite tea in the monsoon season **now in Goa With Moroccan Mint Tea I will be one of ...

It was about four years ago when I experience Brussels sprouts by hold in the eyes at Bali Deli, Bali-Indonesia. They were place nicely in the pretty translucent disposable plastic box in the cold-storage segment. Seeing them in most cute rounded shape and fresh light green, wondering me what kind of vegetables they were? Somehow my curiosity was bigger than my thought so when I took hold of the box it was written the vegetable name “Brussels Sprout” other additional information in the label was refer to an Organic vegetables, to be honest at that time I had no clue what is organic **big question mark. I was full of activity in my work, don’t even bother peeping what’s going on in the kitchen absolutely free from cooking either. Truthfully I got to tell you that I was ZERO in cooking even medium ZERO how to handle the kitchen, sigh!! enjoying my life by consume food out side not healthy home cook food to be frankly was a big big mistake and waste of my time--it was torn my sense away ...
