The photo posted for guessing game #1 was indeed of…’cabbage’. Very green and very Dutch. So, it wasn’t Chinese, Portuguese, or all others you suggested…I had great fun reading all comments. I learnt a lot about all existing types of cabbage too. Thanks!
To those who immediately guessed it right, thumbs up! I had to send e-mails to you privately to not break the game…and give a chance to the others to guess too. It was too easy though, so I had to think of something a little more challenging today. Ready?
And here goes my 2nd photo for the event ‘Guessing Game’ at Eclecticoddsnsods hosted by Justine at the Eclectic Corner. Go there and add your link too!
Now, guess what is in my photo? Leave your guess below in the comments.

Ha! I knew it was cabbage! May we smoke it now?
This one looks like my pair of racy cheesecloth tights. Warm? Hot?

To wake up grey cells makes me think of tea or coffee, but a tea bag wouldn’t have those faint stripes, nor would it look like a net. I am stumped, Lucile. A washcloth, maybe, to splash water on your face?

Ok. Recovered from laughter attack. How inconsiderate of me. I didn’t bake a cake and was on the verge of baking my previous tea…thanks for the early warning…*sigh of relief*
My bad manners are solely attributable to lack of oolong tea, which would have activated my thinking skills earlier. Darn..
But I can do that very fast and in about one hour we have a lovely one to accompany our tea ceremony. Deal? Any preferences? Going out to buy ingredients. Xx

Sounds really good actually: Oolong tea is a product made from the leaves, buds, and stems of the Camellia sinensis plant. This is the same plant that is also used to make black tea and green tea. The difference is in the processing. Oolong tea is partially fermented, black tea is fully fermented, and green tea is unfermented.
Oolong tea is used to sharpen thinking skills and improve mental alertness. It is also used to prevent cancer, tooth decay, osteoporosis, and heart disease.
Some people use oolong tea to treat obesity, diabetes, “hardening of the arteries” (atherosclerosis), high cholesterol and skinallergies such as eczema; and to boost the immune system.
How does it work?
Oolong tea contains caffeine. Caffeine works by stimulating the central nervous system (CNS), heart, and muscles. Oolong tea also contains theophylline and theobromine, which are chemicals similar to caffeine.

It has great benefits that I was unaware of. I drink green tea daily and this one less often to last longer… Time to buy more.
