In Doy’s garden

Log it in Doydum and a row of aubergines sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.

Black tea brewed strong in a double teapot and poured into small tulip-shaped glasses is part of daily life in Turkey. Taken without sugar or milk, it adds very little to the day's totals, however many glasses you have.

The sugar is what counts: every cube or teaspoon stirred in adds up over several glasses a day.
