Green Tea

This morning I took a walk around the neighborhood.
In the porches, I see flowers of all sorts of colors, shape, sizes,..
..and smell!

Then I passed this one house, and when I took a deep breath, this subtle but sweet aroma just filled my lungs.
It smelled of Green Tea! Maybe it was the jasmine plant in front of the house, or the leaves, or maybe a real pot of green tea that was brewed inside.
Either way, I was taken back to a special place back home: my grandmother's house.

When we will younger, whenever mum&dad were away, me and my sister would stay at our grandparent's house. Every morning, she would prepare for themselves a cup of Chinese tea (you know, the one with the loose leaves in those little china.) BUT for me and my sister, she'd brought out two cute cups, and fill them with green tea ( I think :p).

The aroma was incredible. It was sweet and serene, and they did taste lovely! :)
She added a tiny teaspoon of sugar, just so it wouldn't be too bitter.
Perfect after breakfast, before rushing out to get ready for school.


Yep, I think when I come home,
I'll ask her to make pangsit (my FAV!) and the green tea :)

43 days to home!

Cheers!
