I'm Back To Writing

     My youngest child has gone to school and now I'm back to blogging.  Tea in the morning, tea in the afternoon.  It is quiet in the house and I feel like I can concentrate.  I'm making time for tea this fall.  I've been a stay at home mom for 13 years and love it.  Some of my other loves are being in the kitchen and writing.  Hence, I'm making time for blogging.

     Rose Hip Tea
     I have been collecting Rose Hips on my morning runs and walks.  I combine them with an already favorite tea bag and steep for 10 min.  It makes a beautiful colored tea.


The definition from the Dictionary is The ripe fruit of a rose, especially of a wild rose.
     We have many wild roses near our house.  In June the air is filled with rose scent and now in September it is time for harvest.  They seemed more plump and more visible than in years past.   I decided to give it a try and really like it.  The key is to add a tea bag, otherwise it is a little bitter.
     Cheers to Rose Hip Tea.
