Photographer’s Note

It takes glass for him, glass for his mother. It follows the epic of the mother, the same ones since always: to measure the quantity of sheets of green tea in the palm, it notices henné on the hands of his mother, of beautiful at the same time fine hands; to throw in the money teapot; to scald several times; to empty the hot water which washed the tea, by holding the teapot high; to cut and count the fresh sheets of mint; to add to the green tea at the bottom of the teapot; to scald again, while making turn the contents in the two directions; to empty water last once, before sweetening and pouring the water which boils, to the edge of the teapot; to let infuse; finally to serve and make sure that the tea has the hot and gilded color which is appropriate, if not it is necessary all to start again. The tea of the mother is always the best...)
