I’ve been dealing with some painful bloating today. Not common for me. After accepting it for most of the day, I finally did a google and learned peppermint tea can help.

I just happened to have some on hand. I made some in a large cup with two tea bags. And it seems to have worked. I’m surprised! And relieved.

I wish I didn't hate peppermint so much. To the point I dread brushing my teeth with normal toothpaste. But it's nice knowing people find it soothing.

    Do you like cumin? I can’t stand the stuff, but I love mint. The reason I ask, is that the molecule responsible for the taste is the same in both, just mirrored.
