From an Herb Lover's Garden~

With not much room for herbs..as the beds are full of flowers..

Years ago..In love with The Cape..and I still am... but have not been in a very long time..we bought this little boat to grow flowers..

I have put it to a different use the last 3 years..in lieu of flowers..herbs..

.. and edible flowers ...along with some clay pots..it has proven a good little planter..

Parsley,Sage ,Rosemary+Thyme(humming..),Borage,Pansies,Tarragon ,Oregano and Chervil ..

It will eventually get very full and lush~

In the pots ..I grow Lemon Geranium.. Basil..More Rosemary ,more Borage,more Pansies..

Lovage is at the back of our property..I am hoping it will expand as it did at our previous home...

I highly recommend Baptisia :)

If you love to watch Bees~

Bzzzzz

In the Kitchen..

Lighter Fare..Sushi..Asian Chicken Salad with Maple Syrup pecans..Sliders..

Salmon Trout with Asian Noodles..

Very good Canadian Living Butter Tarts that I burnt in the toaster oven..In this month's issue..and online..I was feeling Retro and took it out..It must be almost 40 yrs old..still clean:)  ,hadn't used it in ages..  I had forgotten how powerful those  little gadgets are!Jacques still loved them..I made half the recipe and it made 5 not 6 though~

Also tried a new spice..you see it to the left on the Wasabi mayo ..Nanami Togarashi~A type of Chili Pepper..  sparkled with black sesame seeds..It is so beautiful when you sprinkle it out from the tiny hole..I had never seen any here..They were a gift..I would recommend it to anyone..
Different and delicious~

P.S. I jumped the gun(an expression in English right?)..on this weekend's post..Bon Weekend!~
