That was a good shot, Marlyn! 1stly: no, you did not guess it right. (dont feel sorry, as you've got a consolative Hive !PIZZA from me) 💪

now, about the fennel seeds:

that was a really good assumption, and know what? I do add fennel seeds to my coffee. I have a very special receipe that my old friend and coffee lover shared with me (so its double precious for me that way) - it includes a half spoon of fennel seeds (grinded in mortar), a full spoon of lavender flowers (slightly crushed, not into powder), and 2-3 cardamom seeds. This good friend of mine even supplied me with her lavender, which grows at her place. One day I will definitely show this recipe to the Hive. I still haven't taken the necessary photos... 🧐 ... and now I can tell what kind of green stuff was in my photo, tadaaaam: these were cardamom seeds!

@millycf1976, just for the record: @mdosev and @coquicoin had the right answer. I assume they are great conoissers and coffee-know-how-ers to guess it thru such obscure photo as I posted. (Or maybe we are just in the same boat?) Anyway: my sincere admiration & congratulations!
