The health benefits of red rooibos tea are abundant. This form of tea has traditionally been popular due to its great taste and unique color, while also boosting the health of the body. Rooibos tea or red tea is a medicinal, herbal beverage that is acquired from the Aspalathus linearis bush plant that is found in South Africa.
Our day 2 assignment in the #Blogging101 class encourages us to tweak our titles and taglines.
I initially had my name ‘David Kolawole’ as my title , as a form of ownership and had ‘Lifestyle, Travel & Photography’ as what i blog on.
I have tweaked my title, to do my assignment as “Life is short, have fun !!!” and tagline as “Lifestyle, Travel & Photography. If you want a lifetime memory, take a photo.”
Happy days

Water is life, it is essential for our bodies to function properly and it is also a key to losing weight.
I made this for the 5th day of my detox program. This is actually bitter since it is for detoxing my body.
You can drink more water by using natural flavours, like fruits, vegetables and herbs. Spice up your water, treat yourself and the family to a nice time
You can use any other fruits and vegetables you like, the goal is to get you to drink more water than you usually do.
Ingredients.
Lemon
Lime
Orange
Mint
Cucumber
Ice Cubes

Choosing to live healthy involves a lot of creativity, in order to keep yourself inspired and keep your morale high.
I made this fruit jar snack ,as part of my food for the day and took it along to the office, so instead of being tempted to go for a chocolate bar , sausage or meat pie you can always keep this handy in your office or home fridge.
You can always fill as many jars as possible with different fruits you like and they don’t take a lot of time to make.
This also motivates others around you to embrace the healthy lifestyle.

Carrot

Wow the year 2015 flew by so fast, before we could say Jack, it was already 31st December, 2015.
2015 was no doubt a challenging year for me, my family and business and to a larger extent the whole world. Despite all odds, it is quite ok to be thankful and hopeful for a better 2016.
To round up the year, we decided to have a good lunch since we won’t be attending any of the fireworks in the city of Brisbane to welcome 2016.
Ribs and rumps Fortitude Valley, a bar & grill restaurant was a good choice for us since we had steak in mind.
We arrived at the restaurant a little early before opening time but the place was all set and the friendly staff easily got a us a good spot despite our not having a reservation (don’t mind me, I never remember to make reservations, I once got in trouble for that on mother’s day).
We ordered mocktail (cocktail without alcohol) for drinks.
It was cool and it had Lemon, Lime mint and some other stuff I can’t remember.
Mocktail Cost – $8.00
We got the grilled banana prawns as entree which was on the ‘to share’ part of the menu, oh my God this was finger licking. You should try it whenever you go to ribs and rumps.
Grilled Banana Prawns (buttreflied then grilled with garlic and herb butter) Cost – $17.50
Then came the main meal which I was looking forward to. It came quite fast beyond my expectation, I am still trying to work out the kind of magic the chef did to make our meals that quick.
I ordered the 250g PINNACLE RUMP w/ SLOW-ROASTED LAMB RIBS with herb and garlic potatoes.
The lamb ribs was my favourite on this dish, It was succulent, tender and well cooked. It was literally melting in my mouth.
We also had Caesar salad to go with it. That was yum.
This was a perfect way to round up 2015 and welcome 2016.
I recommend this restaurant for anyone who love to have a decent dining experience in #Brisbane.
The staff are friendly, hard working and full of smiles.
I scored this meal a 7 out of 10.
