Enyovden (Birth of St John the Baptist)
On Monday it’s Enyovden - the holiday of herbs. I love herbal tea! Last year at this time I went to Stara Planina mountain for the first time to collect herbs. The weather wasn’t very nice and the herbs were few. The video was made then. We collected thyme, St John’s Wort, yarrow, lady’s bedstraw and a little camomile. I thank my friend Stoil Kolev for telling me so much about herbs and showing me where the best ones are! From him I learnt a lot about the mountain!
This year he took us to the mountain again to collect herbs. This time it was different - the fields were full of thyme, St John’s Wort, yarrow and camomile. Mint and oregano are collected later in the summer. Now the herbs are drying and in a few days they’ll be ready. I have decided to make cold herbal tea too for the hot summer days.
And you? Do you like drinking tea in the summer?
I’m Lora. Have a nice journey! ✈
