Of all of the colors that shine on Cinderella Castle, I think this mint green is my favorite. Add to it the evening sky, and it makes a near-perfect sight.

Spry Lemonburst Mints provide a fresh burst of citrus in a tiny, flavorful mint. Spry dental mints are sugar-free and sweetened with 100% xylitol! Clinical studies have repeatedly shown that xylitol may reduce the risk of dental caries in people who consistently use products sweetened with 100% xylitol. Consistent use of Spry products can help inhibit the ability of cavity-causing, plaque-forming bacteria to stick to teeth and actually help reverse early cavity formation. Enjoy great flavor and a cleaner mouth with Spry Lemonburst Dental Mints!

We are an independent bookstore, café and Internet hangout place in the heart of Vilnius' old town (the capital of Lithuania) where good people meet.
Mint Vinetu was founded based on the belief that awesome things in life should be shared, and they surely they shouldn’t cost an arm and a leg. Here you will find a decent selection of pre-loved and new titles in different languages (Lithuanian, English, Russian, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Polish, [Type in your language]), different genres (including a great selection of comics and magazines) for a fraction of the price you pay elsewhere.
People come here to charge their hungry phones, to sit down and write a few emails and enjoy a cup of tea/coffee with homemade pie. Stroll in here while walking your dog on a lazy weekend, or grab a friend and come by to one of many poetry, movie, art, music, literature grassroots events we host throughout the year – we will make it special for sure. Check announcements about events on our website and on our Facebook page. Also know one thing about “events”… sometimes (as it happens in life) you just have to be at the right place at the right time! Mint Vinetu also has a tuned up piano and a free-to-play guitar and many of our artsy dwellers of old town sometimes create some really good moments on the spot.
We also sell few unique crafts and cozy things for home; Lithuanian souvenirs, unique coffee, etc – can’t go wrong when you are looking for a small gift for your girlfriend from nearby Vilnius University or you are just visiting and wanna get a souvenir from our amazing city.
Ok now about the name.. we get that question a lot.. One the first books we read in our early teenage years were stories about native American Indians (by saying “we” I say a whole generation of Lithuanians kinda grew up with them). The book by K. May about “Vinetu” reminded us about the joy of reading… I’m sure every one of us have a favorite book that we read.. (if you don’t.. than now you know where you can find one) and Mint (“Mėtinis”) just refers to tea and freshness. Also mostly we just didn’t want to call ourselves The UsedBookCoffeeInternetStore. Maybe the next bookstore we open we will call Mint Harry Potter...who knows? After all we survived 3 years in business, won The best new business initiative award from the Ministry of Industry of Lithuania in 2010 and had the Lithuanian president Dalia Grybauskaite, who also happens to live in the neighbourhood, bringing us her preloved books, picking up some new ones and hanging out at our place. Our bookstore launch print ad campaign ‘Become Someone Else’, thanks to the cool dudes Maksim and Tomas (ex Love advertising agency) is the most mentioned Lithuanian print ad in International advertising blogs and loved by many books enthusiast. But after all we are just happy that we can share some good things, create a space that can contribute to the cool Vilnius artsy landscape and get some positive energy/ideas from you. Hope to see you soon in our bookstore! Also connect with us on Facebook, Twitter, Google+.
This was taken on May 4. The next day we harvested some for mojitos, but it's all grown back by now. Mint is really easy to grow.
Easy Mint Hummus
Hummus is delicious on just about everything (pita bread, corn chips, vegetables… cookies), and luckily it is also super easy to make.
Mint Hummus
1 can chickpeas (reserve 1/2 cup of the liquid)
1/4 cup tahini, which is like a sesame seed butter (I use Sunland brand).
About a1/4 cup of fresh mint
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 clove of garlic
3 tablespoons of olive oil
the juice from one lemon
Method
With a food processor:
Combine all of the ingredients and 1/4 cup of the reserved chickpea liquid in a food processor and pulse until it is smooth (you may require a little more reserved liquid to reach the consistency you enjoy).
Or with a blender:
If you are using a blender, I would start by adding 1/4 cup of chickpea liquid, olive oil , lemon juice, and tahini and blend together. Gradually add the chick peas until it is smooth, then add the other ingredients and you should be good to go.
This recipe really is super easy. I plan on posting a more intricate version using dried chickpeas and homemade tahini in the future, but for the time being, this recipe is very convenient and yields a product that is all kinds of delicious!
Introducing Peppy Mint, a 1940's cloth doll made in England (according to the very old sticker on the bottom of her shoe) by A.D. Sutton & Sons. Her celluloid face was hand-painted. Everything about her, with the exception of the red bow I tied around her head, is original, including the mixed bubblegum pink and white hair. As already noted, her body is primarily made of cloth and her insides consist of mostly sawdust. Peppy is approximately 16" tall.
I picked up Peppy on my birthday while browsing a local antique shop. I'd originally seen her there back in October, but decided I probably didn't need another doll for my collection. I couldn't get her off my mind, however, and I decided I should probably just give in and get her. After doing some research on the vintage dolls (most of which have bright fantasy colored hair), $21 was a pretty average price for her, considering her good condition!
Peppy Mint was named for her red, pink and white color scheme. I can't get the picture of a starlight mint out of my head whenever I see her.
