"Some updates are really necessary!!..."
So ...let's think again... what am I thinking?!!!... atmosphere...weather... "endless blue"..."small problems of the world".... crosswords... "whatever"...
ohhh....yes...
…It was such a chilly weather for gardening in november - especially in that day choosed to perform such an memorable action ...
...in a cosy family gathering... to share joy and the "coolest weather ever felt in november" plus those "lovely" domestic activities... and... at the very end of all of this.... "the blessings" of catching flu...
Since very long hours were spent in almost
"freezing" temperature...
"the old traditional cure" (or idea of my sister and brother in
law) was to have a warm cup of romanian "ţuica"- a traditional
Romanian spirit prepared only from plums..
This one.. was prepared in the "old fashion
style".. so it was being added some sugar and whole black
peppercorns....finaly it looked like a cup of tea...
P.s. or... It wasn't my intent to give details about a
traditional romanian product... but it's absolutely to be consumed with
moderation...
Plus… cordially LOL (again
;)) 
feeling amused. )…all of this was written "in the spirit" of soon coming White
Holidays... so share the joy being cheerful!!

Did you know...
"Traditionally, țuică is prepared from early October
until early December (after winemaking is complete). The process must generally
be finished before Christmas, as not to leave unfinished business for the next
year. If using plums, they must be left for fermentation (macerare) for 6–8
weeks, in large barrels (butoaie or căldări).... (...) țuică may be left to age between six months and ten years in oak
aging barrels (the result is pearlescent yellow, has a strong aroma, and is
known as "old țuică", țuică bătrână). ... Normally, țuica is only consumed before the meal
(traditionally every meal). In most cases, only a shot is served as it is too
strong to be sipped. The drink is also present in all traditional parties
(agape) such as weddings, baptisms, hunting parties, harvest festivals,
religious holidays, family reunions, wakes, and every day of the week. In most
of rural Romania ,
țuică is the usual drink to hold a
toast with, rather than wine, which is almost always consumed towards the end
of the party." excerpts from Wikipedia...
