Writing help

  • A free app: Grammarly. A lot of us are not native English speakers and I am finding it a helpful app. It will underline spelling and grammar mistakes. Remember that it is not always right -especially if you use complex sentence structures. Here is the link

  • Remember The Most Dangerous Writing App. You set the time - 5 min - and start typing. Don’t stop!!! It will destroy what you wrote if you stop for more than 3 seconds - and backspace does not count as writing on the app. If you are prone to stop and think - this app forces you to keep going. You can make corrections after the 5 minutes are over.

  • A timer. Egg timer is a free tool you can use on your desktop to set a time. This is useful for our freewrites or if you want to work in blocks of time and then take a break. Here is the link

  • I found this app through @emwalker. Use it regularly and it will help you type faster and more accurately. [10 fast fingers](https://10fastfingers.com/typing-test/english

When I need some spice in my life, speaking of having some taste on my tongue, feeling a nice high that is bitter, I sure turn to ginger tea. Although I'm a fanatic about how I do it, because I like to start ginger sprouts in my own home. It's a bit difficult for me but over time I've gotten the hang of it. Everything is based on getting a piece that is fresh and placing it in a place that is slightly humid, if possible with a cloth briefly splashed with water. This makes it easier for the ginger roots to come out, when they start to come out I put it in the ground and if I'm lucky in about a week the sprout appears.

Already having the plant grown, I usually take its leaves and of course part of its roots. The process is simple: I cut the ginger into 1/4 cm pieces, crush it with a mortar and pestle, and place it in a glass container with water. There I add 2 tablespoons of honey to the preparation, and if I want to taste something a little stronger, I add 1 or 2 tablespoons of rum or brandy. Then I put that to boil over medium heat for about 10 minutes. Once that time has passed, I let it cool to room temperature.

I pack it in a glass bottle or container and if I have natural chamomile I add it. I close it tightly and put it in the fridge. After 2 days it is ready to consume.

The flavor it offers is spicy and pleasant, the smell is incomparable, and it is an ideal drink to take after meals, or in the afternoon. It relaxes me a lot.

And I hope you are encouraged to try this recipe, I am very good at all these preparations and infusions and I like them very much.

This is my writing for today's 5 minutes of freewrite.

For me I don't like tea, I do feel like tea are for sick people (lol), that was just a joke... Well ginger tea as a lot of benefit I think one is it reduces fat but actually I need it to because my family are praying for me to add body. Not like I'm slim slim but to them I'm slim.

It' becomes top selling some yesterday back in my country just because it help burn fat which I don't know if it true or not and I could remember the day I had a taste of it, it was awful. It's to hot for me so I never took it again
