Mortar and Pestle

While scrounging around in my kitchen cupboards the other day, I found an unexpected treasure, my mortar and pestle. It was like finding a twinkle in the night sky....

It crushed the dried oregano hanging in my pantry so beautifully, before it was tossed into the red beans and rice....

I felt as if I was kissed. The most fascinating part, the little lip on its porcelain edge.
