I Love Mint

Nothing better than a hot relaxing cup of decaf green tea steeped with 10 mint leaves for a third-tri preggo belly, especially after the demon within "forced" you to eat the Taco Bell Crunchwrap Supreme (it smells like cat food every other day).

My guy enjoys it differently: A handful of the sweet smelling herb crushed in a glass with sugar, a healthy pour of rum, a hand-squeezed lime, ice cubes and a topping of club soda.

Bonus....you can't kill the stuff in a lanai pot or anywhere in the yard.

Grab a handful and rub the oils on ur neck. It's a fragrance that's delightful to both sexes.

Good to know. Wonder how it will work on the SW Florida monsters buzzing around here. Need a flame thrower.

@KaTeeEvent I don't know, but when I had a lot of mint and catmint growing around in my flower beds and was mowing or watering plants in the evening the mosquitoes would attack and I'd grab either cat mint or mint and rub it on my head, face and hands and the skeeters wouldn't bite, they would fly around still but not bite.

Thanks for the nudge ....

I just added Crème de Menthe to the shopping list.

Just a tiny sip, chilled, can make a lest than perfect meal easily forgotten. What a refreshing lift.

That’s much, much better than anything with the rancid taste of politics.@Heartlander

My dads been trying to kill the mint growing around his house for but to no avail. Personally I love the smell. 😁

Mint is damned near an invasive species here. There are places where you walk through the tall grass and that is all you smell.
