Licorice mint tea, a trip to the book flea market and Fast Against Slaughter. {Ten On Tuesday}


Hallo meine Lieben,

hope your week is going well and not too stressful. I am surely enjoying the nice fall temperatures and the sunshine. You can link up with my friend Alyssa here.



1. 15 types of readers, as told by cats and dogs. I have been pretty much all of them at some point in my life - well, except of #15. But the cat is still adorable. 

2. I would call my trip to the book flea market a success. I scored 19 new books. Cannot wait to read all of them. As you can see, Tiger is excited as well.  17 of the 19 books are crime novels by the way. 



3. I will go to another flea market on Sunday (not just for books though) and I am hoping to find even more books. 

4. I bought this licorice mint tea last week and I am loving it!





5. I will fast against slaughter on October 2 -  in remembrance and solidarity with the tremendous suffering of farm animals. You can read more about it here. Want to join me? 

6. A cat person's pantry. Looks familiar. I love Cat versus Human. It all reminds me of my life with cats. 

7. 20 years of ER! Love that show. Time to re-watch it. Need to see some Rocket Romano. 

8. I want to be Charlie. Sadly, there are still humans  who do not act this way. Stop the seal slaughter!

9. A higher life form? Please watch this short video by Steve Cutts.



10. I want to make some rice paper rolls...any good recipes you can share with me? 



Have a fantastic rest of the week! Thank you so much for reading!

    Slaughter is appalling, we all must protest in whatever way we can.

  7. I love the selection of books - so Haloween-y :) I am going to watch season seven of Criminal Minds (I've been waiting until this time of year to watch it). I love scary movies, shows, and books this time of year!

  10. Haha, I finally found the answer to my question…I didn't know the licorice mint tea was from YogiTea, interesting! I will have to check it out when I go to the store tomorrow or early this week, thanks Katrin! Did you attempt to fast against slaughter last week - how did it go? There’s a rice paper roll recipe by a guest blogger on my blog.

    1. I saw the tea in a store and had to buy it! It just sounded so delicious. I love licorice! It also smells so good! Let me know what you think if you check it out! The fast went pretty well! I did it for 24 hours. It was also nice to eat something again. :) I read that over 12000 participated! I will check out the recipe on your blog, thank you! <3
