Ladies of Hive Community Contest #279
Greetings and blessings, dear Hive Ladies, a happy International Women's Day, welcome to my blog and to my participation in the weekly contest with questions hosted by @elizabethbit.
1- Describe the perfect afternoon for you. Where would it be? What would you be doing? Tell us the details that would make it perfect!
I had been asked this question twenty-six months ago, I probably would have answered that I would be hanging out with my friends, drinking tea or coffee and enjoying a good conversation, or watching a Netflix series. But right now, I can answer without hesitation that my perfect afternoon is in the park, with my sweet and loving granddaughter. She makes my days and my afternoons perfect. I love spending time with her, watching her have fun, swinging her, watching her go up and down the slide, playing hide-and-seek, lifting her up to heights she can't reach, running together, counting steps, helping her up if she falls, and hearing her sweet voice and laughter.
Amaya Victoria is a very active girl; it seems she never runs out of energy. For me, she is my best company. Her laughter fills me with calm, her tenderness, her funny remarks, her hugs fill me with meaning, hope, and strength. It's as if suddenly my rhythm changes and I can do more. That's exactly where I always want to be, laughing and being happy with my beloved girl.
2- Coffee or tea? Tell which one you prefer and how you like your coffee or tea drink prepared.
I love coffee; it's my favorite drink. But I admit that lately I've incorporated hibiscus flower tea, also known as Hibiscus sabdariffa, into my routine. It was recommended to me because I always suffer from stomach upset. I buy my hibiscus flowers at the market, remove the petals, wash them, and place them on a tray to dry in the sun for two or three days, ready for our tea or other beverage.
I prepare it very simply: I bring a cup of water to a boil, then add a tablespoon of hibiscus flowers. I remove it from the heat, cover it, and let it steep for a few seconds. I pour it into a cup, squeeze in a lemon, and don't add sugar, but you can if you like. That's it! I drink my tea warm, and believe me, it's super delicious and refreshing—perfect for enjoying in the afternoons or before bed. Hibiscus flowers are very versatile; they can be used for many things and combined with many spices such as cinnamon, bay leaf, turmeric, star anise, and ginger, among others. I've read that it's an infusion with many health benefits, nutrients, and vitamins.
Thanks for reading, until next time!

Saludos y bendiciones apreciadas Damas de Hive, un feliz Día Internacional de la Mujer, bienvenidos a mi blog y a mi participación en el concurso semanal con preguntas a cargo de la dama @elizabethbit.
Describe la tarde perfecta para ti. ¿Dónde estaría? ¿Qué estarías haciendo? ¡Cuéntanos los detalles que lo harían perfecto!
Si esta pregunta me la viese echo hace veintiseis meses, seguramente podía responder reunida con mis amigas, tomando té, café y disfrutando de una buena conversación o viendo una tanda de series de Netflix.
Pero en este momento puedo responder sin titubeaer que mi tarde perfecta es en el parque, junto a mi dulce y amorosa nieta, ella hace mis días y mis tarde perfecta, me gusta acompañarla, verla divertirse, columpiarla, verla subir y bajar del tobogán, jugar a las escondidas, subirla hasta donde ella no alcanza, correr juntas, contar escalones, pararla si se cae, oír su tierna voz y su risa.
Amaya Victoria es una niña muy activa parece que nunca se le agota la energía, para mi es mi mejor compañía, su risa me llena de calma, su ternura, ocurrencias, abrazos me llenan de sentido, esperanza, fuerza es como si de pronto mi ritmo cambia y puedo con más es ahí justo donde siempre quiero estar, riendo y siendo feliz con mi niña adorada.
¿Café o té? Dinos cuál prefieres y cómo te gusta preparar tu bebida de café o té.
Soy amante del café es mi bebida favorita, pero recozco que últimamente he incorporado a mis rutinas el té de la flor de jamaica, también conocida como Hibiscus sabdariffa me lo recomendaron porque siempre sufro de pesadez estomacal, compro mi flor de jamaica en el mercado, las deshojo, las lavo, las coloco en una fuente a agarrar sol por dos o tres días hasta que queden secas, lista para nuestro té o bebida.
Lo preparo de una forma muy sencilla :
Coloco a hervir una taza de agua, al hervir añado una cucharada de flor de jamaica, retiro del fuego, tapo y dejo reposar unos segundos, la sirvo en una taza, exprimo un limón, yo no le añado azúcar, pero al que le guste puede añadirle, listo mi té me lo tomo tibio y créanme que es super delicioso y refrescante perfecta para acompañar las tardes o tomar antes de dormir.
La flor de jamaica es muy versátil sirve para muchas cosas y se puede combinar con muchas especias como canela, laurel, cúrcuma, anís estrellado, jengibre entre otras
He leído que es una infusión que tiene muchos beneficios, nutrientes y vitaminas para nuestra salud.
¡Gracias por leer, hasta una nueva oportunidad !

It's so lovely to spend time with a grandchild! It sounds like she gives you the energy to keep going! Hibiscus tea sounds interesting; I don't think I've ever had any.
Thank you for sharing and have a lovely day! !LADY
