grow: a herb series

I started a garden notebook - two actually.  One of the garden and one of the various herbs I have planted around the yard. Funny thing is, I have spilt water on both of those said notebooks now and the pages are crinkled and illegible. Perhaps a picture here will a few notes will do.

Latin: A schoenoprasum
Chives: cylindrical leaves and a mild onion flavor. Globular mauve flowers midsummer

Uses:
1. Novelty plant
2. Sprinkle flowers on salads
3. Eat in salads, sandwiches, soups as a garnish. (I put them on my eggs!)
4. Help stimulate appetite and promote digestion.

Refrigerate chive leaves in a sealed plastic bag to retain crispness, or freeze in ice cubes or dry them.

Mine are getting past their prime so I might try drying them.

The weather is so perfect this week or at least the forecast says it going to be. I'm working on embracing my afternoons. In a sense, treat them like mornings. It's like I want start the day-over every afternoon. Is this even possible? I am working on it. I still need to write my summer manifesto but truly I have a few weeks before summer is official.

Coming up next: mint!
