Mint Tea

My brain is fried. I had nothing to blip! I was sitting at my computer making travel arrangements and doing research and I ran out of daylight to go outside and blip. I had to refill the bird feeders and didn't get to it until too late in the day so the birds must have given up on me.
In doing all this research and making arrangements for my trip to Morocco, I kept reading more and more about all the mint tea there. The tea served all through the day and is a drink of hospitality. Whereas the food is usually cooked by the women, this tea is traditionally made by the men: usually by the head of the family. I read it was impolite to refuse it. YIKES! I've never had it before so I figured I'd better at least try it and see if I like it. I did and thank goodness I do! I could just see myself having to gag down something I didn't like just so I wouldn't offend anyone.
I've read this tea helps everything from indigestion to bad breath and so I think it's a good idea for the traveler to enjoy while visiting. Maybe it'll be a good new habit to pick up.
So I blipped my steaming kettle and my little tea cup and it looked warm and bright so I went with it.
