With the apple mint? Well, it does smell like apples, quite strongly and with some sort of mint addition. It was the apples in Mom's apple pie that appealed to me, not the cinnamon. (I do appreciate cinnamon and enjoyed Red Hots as a kid ;).) I don't know what you mean by "extraction." Where we...

Morning herbal tea this week will be made using the apple mint with the licorice root, orange zest and purchased stevia herb. I am slightly disappointed with the loss of fragrance with the apple. At the same time, my addition of spearmint was to liven up what was in my cup. Homegrown spearmint...

And, DW especially likes cabbage and makes cabbage rolls @Phaedra . That should begin very soon because the early variety we grow is just about ready. The preparation looks completely familiar except she uses mung bean noodles. The tomato sauce will be from the freezer.

I think that you may be right about her feeling responsible for some things — like carrying groceries home from the store. Since she travels on 4 legs, 2 bags provide balance. Weight should be mostly over the shoulders.

The gardener would see the growing difference. Sometimes alternatives are rather obvious — what is the fragrance? And, an argument between vegans isn't a "beef." A rhubarb is the proper term.

Satellite or Bing Bird's Eye :D

It sounds reasonable to me, Marie. As the presenter says, seed potatoes begin as clones with the intent to determine that they are disease free. Tubers are grown from that plant tissue. Tubers – also clones. The gardener would have to be especially careful with an outdoor location while...

The only phoebe that I knew that I was looking at was .. . a girlfriend of my brother's ;). She was the only person with that name that I have ever known. Birds — my Roger Tory Peterson guide says that some species may be found in southern Oregon and south but, otherwise, they are only east of...

Diced mango in a peanut butter sandwich for breakfast. I don't know if I am being creative at this time of day or just lack good judgment ...

But, Clapton is British, Marie! Sensitive Kind (featuring Don White)

How about this?

:D Super Chili (on a big bowl of greens) ... from the little pepper bed in the greenhouse ... making all the bother of watering in there worth it. And, I have had my first sprigs of the purchased Stevia plants from in there. The one plant out in the open garden isn't nearly as far along...

I decided to put Dionne Warwick's "Greatest Hits" in my pocket and carry it around with me :). It was a troublesome morning with touching required official bases. Well, I was outta those chains that bind me for awhile, at least. It was time for me to step back in time and go on a walk with...

So, potted and started indoors very early – move them out too early? My experience with celeriac suggests a very,  very early seed starting if some maturity is required. My experience with groundhogs, or our "Hoary Marmot" version, is that I can torment them to the point of their moving by...

We have purple potatoes this year, also. Probably, I should have stayed with Purple Majesty since I have learned to eat them without closing my eyes ... ;). Instead, they are Huckleberry Gold ... since I learned long ago not to expect Yukon Gold to be loaded with butter just because they look...
