A snowy herb garden . . . .

Snow makes whiteness where it falls

The bushes look like popcorn balls

And places where I always play

Look like somewhere else today
. . . Mary Louise Allen

What a beautiful snow we had .... just look at the herb garden. The angel welcomed me into the serenity of the garden and I was lost in its beauty! It truly did look like somewhere else today.

Christmas Tea 2008

Good Morning!

Temperature this morning at the farm is 9 degrees F!! I moved several rosemarys and a bay laurel inside the greenhouse last night because this is just too darned cold for most anything!!

I have been wanting to post some pictures of the Christmas Tea held at the Herb House on December 14, 2008. Forty people attended the tea (38 ladies and 2 brought their gents!).

It was a wonderful afternoon tea. The food was provided by The Thyme Savor of Raleigh, NC.

After partaking in pork tenderloin rosemary biscuits, chocolate mint truffles, gingerbread pudding with hibiscus cream sauce, assorted scones with herbal jellies and delicious Christmas Spice tea and flowering teas, we played TEAGO, a variation on BINGO, centered around the tradition of tea. Many door prizes were awarded and each person took home a copy of The Tea House Times, a victorian tea magazine! A fun time was had by all!!
