"Nothing builds self-esteem and self-confidence like accomplishment." ~ Thomas Carlyle 

With great pride, relief and little sadness, am saying that today is the last day of my month-long NaBloPoMo journey. I never did this before in my 5 years of blogging - hitting the Publish button diligently every single day. Indeed it was a beautiful challenge which needs a lot of dedication, effort and creativity (to come up with new posts) on one's part. It isn't for the faint heart which I would love to take it up again in future. :-)

Being honest, I never thought that I would pull it off considering how tumultuous our lives were because of dad's accident. I was looking for a good distraction, an outlet where I can take my mind off from happenings around me. Indeed, it worked!. Yay!

Black and White Photography: Green Tea

“There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea.”  ~ Henry James, The Portrait of a Lady

the above quote is as perfect as it can be in my case. The ritual of drinking 'tea' every single day restores normality in my life and helps to keep me sane. :-)

The photograph is of Honey and Ginger Green Tea which I end up making pretty often - served hot in winters and cold in summers.

Sending this as an entry to Rosa of Rosa's Yummy Yums who is guest hosting the Black and White Wednesday # 61 this week, currently being manged by Cindystar.
