Ever have one of those nights?

You know the type... You are tired and angry and want to lie in bed watching your favorite shows (mine are all on the Discovery Channel) and sip a nice cold libation?

Yeah, I had one of those last night...

I tried this out after finding it at the local fruit market...

It was lovely and refreshing. I wonder how mint got to South America? Is it one of those herbs that kind of grows everywhere or was it brought by the Spanish... hmmm, things to ponder.

All righty... the dorky side got the better of me...mint has a subcosmopolitan distribution (you find it almost everywhere) and is a good companion plant to both peppers and tomatos.

and the mojito was cuban and Hemingway's second favorite drink after the daiquiri...
