“You’re rubbing the mint” is its translation from Romanian but it is used to tell someone they are not doing anything.
It comes from the idea that rubbing mint on a table was one of the more pleasant works a slave could do, and it was very easy.
“Iar stai și freci menta?” = You are rubbing the mint again?
“Nu mai freca menta!” = Stop rubbing the mint!
