Time for something a little different. Empty Nesters specifically.
So here I am, at the precipice of being an empty nester, in just four short days. I of course knew this time was coming. I have obviously known it. I guess I just didn’t know what it would feel like to be standing here, now. Since I am a classic bucketer, stuffer, sequester of…

Hops, not just for Beer!
Enter my delight and reverence for a plant so well known to the public for its use in creating ale/beer/lager, etc. I am not a beer connoisseur; however, I do love me some herbaceous (plants that aren’t woody and die back each year) plants that have secret powers! Of course, I love it even more…

Something profane I found in a present! Don’t read if the F-bomb offends you. :)
I bought a friend a bottle full of F’s. Little F*cks made out of wood, probably laser cut. Inside was a lovely note on the nature and usage of F*cks. Here goes, this is 100% them. I have no idea the creator though, sadly. USE YOUR FUCKS WISELY You’re born with a ton of fucks…

Holy What? Yes, Holy Basil!
The other day I was looking through all my many reference books and looking for an herb that could help with as many of the situations going on in my house as possible. Voila, Tulsi appeared, not straight away, but eventually when my state of mind had calmed and I was ready to receive its…

Lemon Balm Souls are Beautiful.
So, this post is for me. Near and dear to my heart, few herbs have had more impact on me. During a particularly rough patch where I found out that my dad had been diagnosed with Frontal Temporal Dementia AND Parkinsons, I thought I might lose myself (in a bad way). By some chance visit…

St. John’s Wort is Worthy
To my friend and sometimes herbal partner Doris, this one’s for you. Your adoration for this wild rangy highway “weed” is adorable. I mean why not though, with all that it has going for it, I think MORE people should appreciate its many offerings. From the ability to tell it from other plants (hint it’s…

Lavender My Dearest
This post is dedicated to the people who lived in my home before I did. They obviously adored Lavender and honestly who can blame them. It is an all-around champ that does so many things well! If you haven’t incorporated Lavender into your life, I highly recommend that you start today. Check to be sure…
