We had a basil plant.
Yes, had because the plant died courtesy of those small white insects that seemed to feed on the fragrant plant. Coupled with that, ants infested on these small white creatures. I wasn’t able to take photos of these creatures but Googling them I was able to land to this page. Click here.

These are some of the ingredients needed to make vegetable soup which would help burn body fat.
Special thanks to a very special lady who shared this recipe to those who want to burn body fat while having this soup: Toni of Wifely Steps.

I have written in one of my blogs about my son drinking warm lemon grass tea for several days now and that the asthma symptoms hasn’t been felt ever since he started drinking.
My youngest daughter had a slight fever yesterday and I asked her to drink the same tea preparation. After some time, her temperature had gone down.
Now I am sharing how this fresh lemon grass tea was prepared.
