Gnomey and Ròisìn's Forest chill

Here is a recipe that we made. It tastes like really sweet tea. Gnomey doesn't like tea, so she thinks it " Kinda good, Kinda medium" But I like it :)

What You need:

1 Quart of Hot water

1 Quart of Cold water

9 Ice cubes

4 Mint leaves, Chopped

Juice of 1 Orange ( about 1/4 cup)

1 TBSP Lemon juice

Three Slices of frozen peach, Chopped

4 Frozen Strawberries, Chopped

4 Frozen black berries, Mashed

5 Frozen Raspberries, Mashed

6 Frozen Blueberries

1 TBSP of honey

1/4 cup Sugar

Put one quart of Cold water in a pitcher. Add the ice. Leave in the really cold Tree ( If you don't have a really cold tree, you might have a " Fridge". You can use that instead. ) until later.Let the mint leaves steep in the Hot water for 4 mins. Scoop out the mint leaves when they are done steeping ( Or you can leave them in, you will be straining it later) Pour in the Orange and Lemon juice into the Hot mint water. Add all the frozen fruit. Add the Honey.

Let it sit for 6 Mins.

Get the the cold water from the really cold tree ( or fridge. . )

Strain the Hot fruity water into the Cold icy water.

Strain the pulp until you can get most of the juice out.

Add the sugar and mix it really well.

And you're Done! The resulting mixture will taste kinda like some sort of sweet tea. Gnomey think it could use more sugar, But I think it is just sweet enough ( almost too sweet!)

And Gnomey!

About Us, and the land of Forest's edge

Here is a little bit about Us.

Gnomey- Gnomey is a forest Gnome. Forest Gnomes are very different from garden Gnomes. Forest Gnomes are more like elves. The do not wear red pointed caps like garden Gnomes, they usually wear floppy hats which they call " Mushy Hats". "Mushy Hats" look like a winter hat, but they are more floppy around the top so they look a bit like a mushroom, hence the name "Mushy hats". Forest Gnomes are ussually found, well. in forests! they like to eat mushrooms, fruit, berries, nuts, and other forest foods. Forest Gnomes also have large feet. Gnomey lives in a small hut near a stream in the land of Forest's edge

Thistle- Thistle is a fairy. Unlike most Fairies, she has no wings. But she can turn into different animals. ( If you have ever watched "The secret of the Kells" there is a fairy named Aisling in that movie. Thistle is alot like Aisling.)

Like Forest gnomes, she usually eats forest foods. She lives in a Thistle field in the land of Forest's edge. Her full name is thistle Breezland

Tree Hopper- Tree Hopper is a Forest elf. Forest elves are smaller elves, about the size of forest gnomes. They are often found in trees, bushes, and just walking around the forest. Forest elves are often very enthusiastic about things too. Like forest gnomes and forest fairies, they eat forest foods. Tree hopper lives in a maple tree in the land of forest's edge.

Petal- Petal is a little flower fairy. (she does have wings) Flower fairies are often found around, well, flowers. they also eat forest foods. They also occasionally drink sips of nectar from flowers. Petal lives in a wildflower field in the land of Forest's edge.

Forest lady- The forest lady is the lady who rules over most of the land of forest's edge. She lives in a hut on the banks of the river. The people of the forest edge often must Consult with the forest lady before any expeditions or undertakings. She is sort of like the Queen of Forest edge.

Róisín- Róisín ( pronounced Roh-sheen) is an elf, similar to tree hopper. However, she is more shy than tree hopper's kind. She is often found in almost the same places though. Wandering around, and in bushes, and trees. She live in and around an old oak tree.

Now abit about Forest's edge. It's not just the edge of a forest. The land of forest's edge is a lovely place. It stretches from the mountains all the way to the end of the woods.
