wow i recently realised that in scans of cells etc - the cells aren't colourful themselves but it's the process of the fluorescent dyes they use to see the results...
here is a pic of some serotonin crystals under a microscope... like how cool and pretty?

spearmint and peppermint tea is so good because i think it's rare to find a tea that you can drink all year round.
in summer it's refreshing and invigorating
yet in winter it's also quite comforting and warming.
so versatile - shoutout spearmint/peppermint tea
