There's no doubt I will always be a "southern" girl at heart. It makes no difference if I'm in the sweltering heat and humidity of New Orleans summers riding my bike, or the soft, dry, sweet spring sunshine of the Lot pushing the lawn more with dried grass and hay in every imagineable out of the way place...I have my iced tea with me.
My flavor/tea of choice is mint green tea. In New Orleans, it's Bigelow's. In Cadrieu, it's Lipton's the vert menthe intense. And here, I have more natural mint garnish than I know what to do with. I am in mint green tea heaven.
By the end of my grass cutting on Saturday, I was doing the land around the wagon and found many sweet spots to rest my beverage of grass-cutting choice...and I'm finding, my choice throughout the day as well. I'd shared many a mint green tea with a friend in New Orleans prior to my departure, so that every time I brew a new pitcher of it here in Cadrieu...it carries me to those New Orleans moments! Mint Green Iced Tea Magic!
Et Voila-a bit of the fruits of my Saturday labors! Who knows what Monday holds!-And, I checked on the baby birds who were peacefully sleeping on top of each other with their little fluffy black feathers beginning to peek out!
Happy Monday!
