DeleteI have heard a lot about this gaharu but have not tried any of the products yet.
ReplyDeleteWe have tasted the tea there and this is the first time I bought the soup mix. Will taste and post about it but first must get the chicken first.
DeleteSo many things are organic now. Sometimes they don't look all that appealing and the prices are very high. I hope it catches on though.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day and weekend Nancy. ☺
I agree with you, Sandee. These herbal teas are not cheap.
DeleteGreat information, and beautiful photos, Nancy!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Linda. Have a great day!
DeleteI think my favorite here is the path in the plantation. So beautiful with the brilliant blue sky! I can't imagine what the ice-cream tastes like.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ginny. That is also my favourite photo. It is not easy to describe about the taste of ice-cream. My hubby doesn't like the taste because he said it had a green/raw taste.
