Twinings does Pomegranate


They have probably had it kicking around for a while but I just received a sample, and oh boy all I can say is yummy.
It's a light black tea, almost no tannic taste, with a sweet fruity undertone and a floral finish.
That is my review. I will be ordering my weight in this lovely item.
I can see all the things I can make with it. Base for fruit soups, ice creams and sorbets, sauce experiments. Iced or hot, this is lovely.

Post apocalyptic Fun! Feminine Nervous Complaints

Sooooo, over the years I have happily-nay obsessively and enthusiastically collected home remedies, diy projects and survival tips and techniques that can help you survive any apocalyptic situation like a cockroach.
Going through some of the more "flavorful" home remedies I decided to start posting them for fun. I have gotten most of them from old books (the 1970s) and early homesteader manuals as well as the beloved Foxfire series.

This first one is a nice little recipe for "feminine Nervous Complaints"

1 cup hot milk
1 cup good white wine
powdered sugar

add wine and milk together, then stir in powdered sugar to taste. Sip slowly while lying down.

I wonder if Lydia Pinkham came up with that one....

Enjoy ladies!
