Love this shot. The wine in the background was unintentional but makes it so much better. I might have to try and recreate it now that she has a new faceup.
Wild Mint (Mentha arvensis) - The banks of the Passaic River 25 miles west of "The City" (NYC)
The wild mint was in bloom everywhere along the river giving every breath a spicy sweet smell and a soft minty taste.
I used a fallen tree branch to hold this flowerhead steady, and took 4 shots with each focused on a different flower bract. The above image is a composite of those four captures.
Sometimes multiple focus points will make a subject look unnatural, but if the points of focus are relatively equidistant (as in this case) it can work quite nicely.

The last year of opperation for this beautiful garden. Chilliwack, BC Canada.
My mother, wife and I went for a drive to Minter Gardens, located near Vancouver, BC. An enjoyable time was had by all.
As recommended by the Boston Shaker (thebostonshaker.com) I thought I'd try some mint juleps this weekend in honor of the derby.
Cheers!

A visitor could be forgiven for thinking that Morocco runs on mint tea. Yet it originally arrived from a very unexpected direction. At the end of the last century, an English tea-ship was diverted from the Crimea by the war there. With few exceptions, the locals considered the infusion weak and tasteless . . until somebody dropped a handful of mint leafs into his glass and ‘Whisky Marocain’ was born.
This iced tea comes from Bobby Flay's book Grilling for Life. It requires only a few ingredients and comes together in a flash.
Go to my blog for the recipe and step-by-step photos:

AHH, some freshly picked mint and some hot water makes for some delicious afternoon tea. I can't wait till all my other tea plants grow so I can start mixing up my own teas.
Bought some mint from the grocery store to make some Double Chocolate Chip Mint cookies a few weeks ago.
On a whim I decided to stick a little bit of it in a pot. It's GROWING!
It started off as four tiny little leaves.
modified from a recipe i found online somewhere. makes a TON off smallish brownies, and a still-overpowering amount of big chunkers like those seen here. my version of the recipe, with illustration, can be found at www.ummagurau.com/art/cookbook/ .
Naturally, you'll want to keep these guys chilled, due to the butter in the frostings and the general potential for sticky meltiness otherwise. Eat, enjoy, share! Great for mint-themed parties.
I've been using the Mint Pepper Session Tracker available from Peppermint Tea for what seems like forever now. I love being able to see how users are browsing my site.
A few days ago I fixed a horrible wrongdoing in my site known as "No Home Link." It shouldn't have taken me a year to add it, I know. What I've noticed in the week since it's been there is that people are navigating my site by returning to the home page and diving back in from there.
This isn't really a surprise, as I myself will do the same. When I get to a site, sometimes I'll notice a link on the front page that I'm interested in, but click on something else first. Rather than try and find that other information from where I am now, I'll go back to the home page and find that thing I saw before.
Anyway, you can see here that this user (among others) is doing just that. Interesting.
I've been piecing together a custom desktop running on an old Dell D400 with Linux Mint 11. After a bunch of false starts with Conky, I opted to use screenlets to display a system monitor and weather forecast. I got the the D400 for $30 on eBay. It's a low-end business class laptop, but offers some decent upgrade potential. The original Broadcom card crawls at a snail's pace with the Linux legacy driver, so I pulled out the wireless card from an old T41 that's been sitting in the closet ever since the video chip died. I also swapped a 1GB RAM chip with the 512kb one nested under the Dimm plate beneath the keyboard. Now the Dell is running pretty well, although I'm going to try installing an Atheros N draft card in it next. At some point I might swap out the Pentium M chip for one that's 2Ghz.
the mint that i collected at my family's cottage a week ago. the little sprigs are in a tiny mason jar of water so they will root and i can plant them in my garden. yes, i know it spreads, and that is exactly what i want it to do in this particular spot. it was a little sad this morning because i didn't realize they had run out of water. thirsty little mints.
Part of my 2011 collection. Hand thrown in stoneware clay and decorated with screen printed ceramic decals. Can be washed in the dishwasher and is ok to microwave.
Size (h x w): 8.7 x 15 cm (3.4 x 5.9 inches).
Oh I meant the color mint. But it is in decent shape too. Maybe it could be called mint-mint? :P
You Pyrex Phreaks are welcome to tell me more about this piece.
Bottom bowl: Mint color on outside, clear glass on inside.
EDIT:
This is still a JAJ piece even if it is not spelt "JAJ" on the logo. I just learnt that the Crown logo is JAJ logo. So this is UK piece. I looked at JAJ pictures and yes the curved handle is common there. Ok, it is not such a surprise, living in Europe, having access to mostly only JAJ pieces. (I got confused because of that my other JAJ piece only has the JAJ text and the crown, but no PYREX text)
