Reply:I never am without fresh cilantro, and rarely without fresh basil. My refrigerator generally has cilantro, basil, garlic, two or three types of chili pepper and a couple kinds of fresh mushrooms in it. (Obviously, some of those are not herbs, but nonetheless, those are the base for much of what I cook.) I love cooking with fresh rosemary, dill and mint, when the are available locally.

If I would like to study Sage for Book Keeping.....what Sage would I need to study first?

There are no stages in studying Sage it is a complete programme and not split into varying levels. It is very good accountancy package and I wish you every success.

Where can I buy herbs for my vaporizer?

I have a vaporizer. Where can I buy herbs (not cannabis) like sage, marshmallow and all the other ones that people rave about for health benefits? Do I buy fresh herbs (sage, lavender) and crush them up or do I have to buy them dried?



Any help would be great. Thanks.

Where can I buy herbs for my vaporizer?
I don't know how well these herbs would be in a vaporizer. They need to be taken internally for full effects. Essential oils can be used in vaporizers, but I don't know about herbs.



Google herb suppliers and you'll find many places to order from. Natural health/whole food stores will carry them, too.



Use twice the amount fresh you would use dry, by the way.
Reply:Hey check out www.spellspot.com. This is where I get all of my herbs.
Reply:It would not be advisable to use those herbs in your vaporizer they could clog the plumbing. Probably use some essential oils of what you're wanting to obtain.
Reply:if you ARE in the uk,,,if anyone on this is IN the UK???? Culpepper,, the Herbalist
Reply:if you have alternative stores (like wiccan/pegan stores) near you, they usually sell them. you can also try health food stores, like trader joes or something like that, they usually have an isle devoted to herbal things. i cant think of the store i'm really trying to think of... mental block... its not wegmans, not trader joes (tho they do have some stuff)



whole foods! thats it. they have lots of that stuff.



if you can get fresh thats better. you can also search on-line.
Reply:you would be better of using fresh herbs and mashing or crushing the plant part and put a some boiling water onto them then just leave them to steep or you could use dried herbs put you would have to put them into a pan with cold water and slowly bring to the boil reduce heat and simmer down to a quarter of its original volume (10minutes or longer) then put into to your vaporizer until you will also have to crush or bruise these to release their active principles

Do you think that white nursery furniture is suitable for baby boys?

Does white seem to girlie to put in a sage green and yellow nursery?

Do you think that white nursery furniture is suitable for baby boys?
Those colors are great neutrals, and calming colors. Very appropriate and cute.
Reply:if its a darker green and not a pastel it'll fit for a girl or boy.....

white is suitable for either

dark yellow-NOT pastel is suitable for either also
Reply:white can be used for boys if the furniture is not feminine. I noticed usually that the white cribs can sometimes look girly because of the design. But, if it's plain white furniture I think a boy can also use it.
Reply:I don't think it is girlie I think it is neutral. go for it!
Reply:whats wrong with white furniture for a boy? my son had a white crib.
Reply:It's not girlie at all, those colours are calm and serene. Perfect for any baby, boy or girl!
Reply:not at all! white goes with everything so it can be reused if you have a girl later on in life.



Besides, babies don't care about that kind of thing.
Reply:White with sage green and yellow, I think that is to girly. In general, if I see a white crib, I think girl.

But try paring it up with a darker color, like navy and touches of yellow and a sports theme, that seems more mascline.
Reply:Yes I have two boys and there furniture is all white never thought about that no one has said anything!
Reply:seems nice
Reply:I love white and see nothing wrong with it in a boys nursery!
Reply:I really don't think white is too anything. It's just furniture. The way you decorate the bed and the room is what gives it personality.
Reply:I absolutely love white baby furniture!! thats what im using in my baby boys nursery... i think it works really well with blue walls :)
Reply:Nothing wrong with white for a boy, white is a unisex color. My son had a white crib.
Reply:Yes White is fine...I am sure the bedding and stuff will be blue, and white and blue is a beautiful thing!
Reply:I think those would be great colors.
Reply:White is a good color for a boy or a girl.
Reply:I am about as anti "gender neutral" of a person as you will ever find .... I ride a Harley ... hang out at Stripclubs ... would be considered by most any "open minded person" as a biggotted chauvanist etc etc ..... and I would say that " white is alright " ..... man that sounds racists but I did not mean it to ... my wife did Navy Blue on the bottom3 ft of the room with white for the top portion of the walls above it and white chair rail with denim curtains and we got an almond all in one crib set ...... and walmart quit selling the model crib we bought and now just has it in white , and I would think it is acceptable for my son ........
Reply:I think white furniture works well for a boy or girl. As long as its not pink and purple I don't think he'll mind lol :)


Color of curtains and table covering?

In my bedroom have two windows and there is a small rounded table in between them. The walls are sage (green) and my comforter and accents are all lilac (purple). My question is, what color curtains should I get AND should it match the table covering which I will eventually get to cover the small table??? I was thinking beige or white. I think it might be too hard to match the green or purple I already have in there. What do you think?



Thanks!

Color of curtains and table covering?
I would go with white billowy curtains on the windows. For the tablecloth I would do a two step treatment with fabric. Put a white table cloth on the round table and drape a piece of beautiful fabric that hangs down about a foot from the tables edge. The fabric color would be either a lilac or a deep purple, whichever you like better. They may even have table toppers wherever you buy the tablecloth.
Reply:Go with an off white or bisque color for the windows - it allows for more light. I would accent the table to pick up the comforter with sage %26amp; lilac.



If you opt to make the windows and table the same color then focus on changing the fabric textures. For example: sheer and light fabric for the window and a heavy brocade for the table.
Reply:i like the beige idea

i think if you put to much green and

purple it wouldent look right
Reply:I think a purple and green patterned material for the curtains and table cloth. It doesn't have to be the same pattern, like maybe a stripe and a flowered. But if the prints don't match one should be a large pattern and on a small pattern.

The colors don't have to match the walls and coforter exactly. Actually I think a darker green and purple might look nice.

Or else you could go with the same color as your trim.
Reply:I suggest a golden apricot color. And yes, I think I would match the tablecloth to the curtains.
Reply:i like bright colors. so i would say for your windows yellow. for your table blue


I live in Phoenix, AZ. What's the best way to grow your own herbs?

I would like to grow basil, thyme, rosemary, sage, oregano, parsley, marjoram, and chives. Should I grow them indoors? They seem too delicate to be outside.

I live in Phoenix, AZ. What's the best way to grow your own herbs?
The list you give includes woody Mediterranean climate plants that will do well in Phoenix outdoors. Rosemary is a shrub that does not like to be in wet or humid conditions. Rosmarinus officinalis does best it a rather dry light, sandy loam. On a chalk soil it grows smaller, but is more fragrant.

http://www.gardeninginarizona.com/Plants...

http://www.gardeninginarizona.com/Plants...

Oregano and thyme are winter hardy herbs that need full sun. Oregano creeps so can grow along steps or rock walls easily. It will form a mound that can be sheared into shape. The major species include Origanum marjorana also known as sweet marjoram and Italian oregano O. vulgare ssp. hirtum.

O. marjorana can be tender but O. vulgare is hardy. They need a well drained, alkaline soil of no more than average fertility to flourish. They can become bitter with to much fertilizer and grow lax, spindly foliage developing poor fragrance because the oils are not made %26amp; stored properly when growing quickly.

http://www.gardeninginarizona.com/Plants...

Thyme is an enormous family divided into bush and creeping types. Orange balsam blooms first while English and Wedgwood bloom last in the bush category.

http://www.mountainvalleygrowers.com/thy...

http://www.mountainvalleygrowers.com/thy...

They are choosy about their soil. Thyme are shallow rooted so are easily frost heaved completely out of the soil in cold climates. In humid or damp areas they can develop rot.

They like sandy or rocky soil that is 1/2 sand and 1/2 average loam. They do not like acid soil so need lime or oyster shells added in those conditions. They need an inert mulch layer to keep surface moisture down but offering a chance to self-layer the lateral branches. An organic mulch will work because you are in an arid area.

Bush thymes may be trimmed in spring or after flowering to as much as 50% of their height or they can do well with several light shearings removing less than an inch at a time. Heavy shearing should never be done in summer. They require a dense mound of foliage to protect their main branches from desiccation in winter.

http://www.gardeninginarizona.com/Plants...

Basil is tender and needs much the same conditions as tomatoes. They like a dry surfaced, well drained soil. This means the water should be infrequent on the surface but available at depth. This means they do very well with flood irrigation or soaker hoses.

A bark or gravel mulch aids in keeping the surface dry. Thick organic mulch or sawdust keep the soil too cool for me in zone 7b but might work well for you. Poor soils impart a clove-like flavor while rich soils and excess moisture produce the licorice flavor.

Some basils are leggier than others so are less attractive outside the kitchen garden. Those with the best shape include Dark Opal, Spice, and Krishna.

http://www.gardeninginarizona.com/Plants...



Chives, Allium schoenoprasum, like a richer loam that stays moist. In hot areas they need shade at midday. These definately need an organic mulch. They may be a winter crop for you.

What are the spices effect on the health of humans?

I am writing a very serious paper on the real beneficial effect of a given spice on the health of a human being. If you have personally tested and know the real effect of a given spice (such as sage or cumin or ginger or cinammon or any other spice) please give me in a few words the specific effect and the benefit you have derived.Did it actually "cure" an illness or improved it to what extent --give percentage of success. This is a serious subject and hopefully I will get

very serious and dependable answers. Thanks.

What are the spices effect on the health of humans?
The only personal experience I have is of using cinnamon.

I started taking around 1 teaspoonfull twice a day after I became diabetic. I was put on prescribed meds at the time of diagnosis. I started using teh cinnamon about a month post diagnosis. A week or 2 later I started having low blood sugars. Went to doctor and meds halved. Continued....3 weeks later started having hypos again. Meds discontinued. I am now eating a sensible balanced diet (using only complex carbs) and taking the cinnamon for my diabetic control (which remains excellent);


How can I find the manufacturer of a french country antique cabbage rose quilt?

I am looking for the manufacturer of a french chic antique cabbage rose or also known as english rose garden quilt. I have found this quilt on Ebay and Overstock .com. On Overstock .com catalog #10087542. I also have a model #GL-WB0726.



This is a beautiful quilt with an antique tea background. With a romantic French blend of colors including melon rose and pink roses, butter yellow, sage green, rose and a touch or French periwinkle blue. It has several prints consisting of roses, wildflowers, vintage roses, and cabbage roses along with a ticking stripe and garlands of flowers.



I want to find the manufacturer to inquire about purchasing fabric to make window treatments. According to the two vendors I have found to have this item there are none available.



Any help is appreciated,



Pat

How can I find the manufacturer of a french country antique cabbage rose quilt?
I'm sorry, I couldn't find the manufacturer for you. An alternative is to take samples of the fabric (say, the shams) with you to a quilt shop and try to find something similar, or at least complementary. That style is very similar to some popular fabrics currently available. Check out Hancocks of Paducah, an excellent online quilting and home decorating fabric store. Search or browse through the florals. One designer in particular to check out is Three Sisters by Moda fabrics. They have several lines that have a similar feel. Check out Faded Memories, the Three Sisters Favorite (especially Paris Flea Market), and Seaside Rose. These are just the ones available through Hancocks - also check out eBay for Moda Three Sisters, Gingham Rose, or ask your local quilt shop if they have any of these lines (or similar fabrics).



Good luck - it's a beautiful set.
Reply:the seller from ebay didn't say where they got the quilt?


How bad will these types of flowers spread?

I bought a bag of Butterfly %26amp; Hummingbird Attracting flower seeds. What I would like someone to tell me is if these are the types of flowers that will spread all over my (and my neighboors') yard. Here's the seeds:



Baby's Breath

Zinnia

Chinese Forget Me Not

Bachelor Button

Cosmos Sensation

Candytuft

Shasta Daisy

Black-Eyed Susat

Alyssum

Scarlet Sage

Foxglove



Also, are these flowers ones that will come back year after year?

How bad will these types of flowers spread?
Cosmos are self re seeding and will spread , Black eyed susan will spread. What zone are you in? This will determine if they are considered hardy in your zone. Tender perennials are plants that in Southern zones are usually hardy, but in more temperate climates will only be annual. Foxglove, Forget me nots, and Baby's Breath(Gypsophilia) are generally perennials in all zones.You will have Cosmos re seeding every year, but not the same plants coming back.Black Eyed Susan can become a nuisance, seeding itself every where, becoming invasive.
Reply:Bachelor buttons spread to a degree, but they're not that invasive. The others are all fine. The zinna, cosos, candytuft, alyssum will last one year. The foxglove, bachelor button, daisy and black eyed susan should come back. I'm not sure about the scarlet sage or chinese forget-me-not, I don't recognize their names as flowers that I have seen or planted.I think your butterfly garden is pretty safe not to get out of control.
Reply:The foxgloves are biennials - they make a plant the first year amn may not flower until the next. then they will seed and new plants will appear in surprising places, but they are easy to pull out if you don't want them. Cant tell you awhat the others will do as it could depend on where you live.
Reply:some will depend on your Zone and how good your ground is. My last place I culdnt get Cosmos to grow,here it self seeds all over the place Forget me nots will also take over by slef seeding if its happy and Black eyed Susan is a perennial that spreads both by self seeding and by spreading by runners. Never grew Baby's Breath...Zinna like to self seed, as do bachelors buttons and daisys Foxgloves have to really like their soil to ..
Reply:Naa, won't spread. Not absolutely positive, but they all sound like annuals - - this year only unless you save seeds for next year. They will create seeds. If have concerns, pluck off the dead flowers %26amp; dispose of them or save seeds for next year. If saving seeds, make sure they are thoroughly dried out, zip lock bag %26amp; label with marker what is in it %26amp; what color.



The best thing I ever did was buy a perennial book for plants, trees, flowers that return each year. Then periodically I add annual seeds of different flowers in front %26amp; around my permanent plantings. I marked each item in that book for my zone. I can not pick %26amp; choose for sun/shade, height, color and when %26amp; how long they bloom. I also created my yard on a graph paper with each square as a foot. This helped over the years for fencing, plantings, fountain, etc... Each perennial I marked a number on my 'blueprint' and the explanation of its name, etc.. on the back for future use.



Lot of work, but it reduces remeasuring over the years and moving some plants again and again.



I got myself on a catalog mailing list through Gurney's, Burbee's, etc... which allowwed additional options other than what is being sold in my city only. Prices was cheaper, too.


Wedding reception centerpiece to make. On a budget, but still want elegance?

I am getting married in a month and cannot find anything I really like. I am making the centerpieces myself. I really like flowers and candles. The reception room has a very romantic feel to it with large wooden beams that are lite up and large stone fire places. The colors are ivory, sage green, gold, and pink. Also, I am getting married outside the location on the water and am arriving in a horse and carriage if anyone has suggestions for the centerpieces that involve either of those. Please help! :)

Wedding reception centerpiece to make. On a budget, but still want elegance?
Find inexpensive mirror tiles, place one in the center of each of your tables. Top with a glass vase (you can buy at walmart for less than $2.00 each), half fill with distilled water, float in a couple of flowers that match your wedding colors and a floating candle. The lights reflected on the mirror will be so beautiful.
Reply:Thanks, that's exactly what I am going to do. Also, I am putting votive candle holders on the mirrors with a couple different size vases. Thanks again! Report It
Reply:I made all of mine, too. Centerpieces, bouquets, all that stuff.



My best advice to you is a visit to your local craft store. (I had pretty good luck at Michael's.) They have all kinds of shapes of floral foam, and some silk flowers you can't tell aren't real. (And so much less expensive than the real thing!)



I'm thinking you could get a trio of really tall candle holders in a gold finish, and some nice nice ivory or sage candles, then surround them with silk flowers in pink, cream, and soft green foliage. Maybe some vine types that you can wind up into the candleholders, too. For your water theme, you can get bags of beach glass (It's frosted from the sand and waves) in a soft sagey color, and use that as kind of an edging.



You may have to trust someone to get this stuff set up at the location for you, but DIYing your flowers saves a pile of money.
Reply:You can buy large glass bowls real cheap at craft stores. Buy bags of flat colored marbles, I would use just one color, maybe green. Then buy floating flower candles, pink sounds pretty. Put layer of marbles in glass bowl add water, put in floating candle. Very elegant. It should cost only $3-$4 per centerpiece. I used to set up weddings and this is a very beautiful and elegant centerpiece.
Reply:We were at a wedding that had some really simple, elegant centerpieces. They were round glass fishbowl type vases about 4-5 inches in diameter. They put some colored stones in the bottom and wrapped some leaves from some grassy plants around the inside of the bowl. The filled the bowl about half way and floated a flower in the vase. They probably cost a couple of dollars a piece to make.
Reply:Well, if you lived anywhere near central Missouri, I would let you use the 30 centerpieces I have in my garage. I bought a glass bowl that is low and kind of flat, added a white small flower candle ring inside and then added a white pillar candle in the center. They were very elegant and didn't cost much at Hobby Lobby. I used three different size of pillars so it make each table kind of look a little different. I have also seen people take this low flat kind of clear glass bowl (it's almost like a smashed fishbowl) and add water with blue food coloring and some floating candles.
Reply:go to flea markets garage sales etc--get brandy snifters of graduated sizes and in the bottom put those glass pieces you can get at any dollar store to match you colors--say maybe gold and clear--put about 1/3 in the bottom of snifter and you could put a pillar candle of matching color--or silk flower or both--you can get a person at a grocery floral place to save the pink and white rose pedals for you and sprinkle them on the tables and to look real elegant you should get clear crystal type taper candle holders and then get your candles at the dollar store (taper) for a little of nothing and have them everywhere--get bud vases and tie a pink narrow width bow around them--and put a single pink rose in each for your tables--get the cloth look white table cloths for your table--most card shops and walmarts carry them--use crystal bride and groom glasses and tie small bow on them==babys breath looks very elegant with the flowers also--you can get small gold horses at a craft store and make a carriage to go with it for a centerpiece Hang bells (walmart) from those wooden beams get a couple of clear vases at yard sales and

flea markets and make a floral arrangement yourself with a few sprigs of fern, baby's breath and roses--roses always look elegant and the green and pink will go with your color motif--be sure to put candles and a centerpiece on the mantle of the Fireplace--also you can make favors using netting from the cloth store or walmart and small ribbon--get the gold hershey kisses and put them in white netting--that would look good--and then get baskets at yard sales, thrift stores or flea markets--spray paint white or gold and glue gun lace around your baskets to hold your favors--dont forget to get some bubbles and some crayon/coloring books etc for the kids who might come! you can get matches that say our wedding day on them--they aren't inscribed but still add that special touch! Also don't forget a guest book (get it at card shop) and a nice pen (goldtone) so that you will remember who all came to your reception-- Hope these ideas are helpful--and Congratulations!

Take some disposable cameras with you and hand them out to your family and ask them to take pictures for you--you can never have enough pictures even if you do have a professional photographer! People will end up getting different shots--things another person might not get! Have fun!

Can I save my indoor herb garden?

I have a small herb garden in a spare bathroom that I have placed a grow light in. Some plants are doing really well, while others aren't. I cut back most of the herbs in the fall but some of them haven't started growing new again. The bathroom stay cool but not too cold. We have a clothes dryer in there that we use but it doesn't get too hot or humid. Thoughts?



Here is what I have:



Doing Well:

Aloe x2

Lovage

Echinecea



Hanging on for dear life:

Patchouli

Stevia



Possibly dormant or dead?:

Sage

Mint - in own container



Pretty sure these are gonners:

Rosemary

Sweet Marjoram

Lemon Balm

* these three were potted together. Perhaps that is why they all perished.

Can I save my indoor herb garden?
You might want to do some research to find out whether or not the plants you are having trouble with are annuals or perennials. Most plants go through a dormant stage and look like they are dead but give them a month or two and they should spring back.
Reply:They should be potted seperately.My step dad is a horticultural Architect.I asked and he says you can pot them individually and that will help them grow a little better.

Questions for caring for my new garden?

Yesterday I planted two beefsteak tomato plants, a cayenne pepper plant and three June-bearing strawberry plants with a nice selection of herbs in between (chamomile, sage, basil, parsley, dill, etc.)



I amended the soil with some decayed cow manure and sprinkled the transplanted plants with warm water. Other than that, I haven't done anything to them.



I was wondering if anyone knows if there's anything else I need to do in the meantime. I plan to continue watering them for another week barring any rain. Thanks!

Questions for caring for my new garden?
Continue to watch the weather in case of frost advisories (if there is one, the plants need to be covered to prevent from freezing).

Don't over water, but don't underwater.

If you plan on using chemical fertilizer, read the packaging to see when the best time for application is.

You may want to steak out your tomato plants now as beefsteak are large tomatoes. You can also pluck the bottom couple of shoots/leaves from the tomato plant to promote upward growth rather than outward.
Reply:you better find some stakes to hold up the tomatoes because those produces a lot of tomatoes at once and then they start leaning over and breaking. Strawberries requires more water then others and also water close to the soil and not the leaves or they will burn in the light. and irrigate your soil once every 2 to 3 weeks so the water and compost or fertilizer you are using can get to the roots. But don't water them too often unless you are in that hot heat then you need to water it more frequently. hopes it works for you.
Reply:Be carefull for over watering. Damp conditions can affect germinations. Keep the soil moist and warm if possible. Constant heat is very important.

Reply:be prepard for another frost jeff,other than mulching to keep the weeds down ,it sounds like you got er going on.
Reply:There's not really much else you can do. You can put some straw around them. That will help keep down the weeds and help hold in moisture, but I'd wait till the plants get a little bit bigger before doing that. Straw can attract cut worms or slugs which can kill your tomato plants when they are young.



Just don't overwater the plants, that can cause the roots to rot. It won't affect the tomatoes so much, but the rest of the plants especially the pepper and basil...watering it too much could drown them out.
Reply:If you have not worked the land before you may want to add more manure or a vegi fertilizer next week. Large amounts of water are the key to getting the plants rooted and growing well. Depending on the size of the tomato plants you might want to start training them to a stake or cage now so you do not have to worry about it later when extensive damage can be done easily.

Water is the biggest thing though.


What spices go good with chicken dishes?

Sage is often used for fowl, especially turkey.

Any others?

What spices go good with chicken dishes?
Spice it any way you like! Spice it up with garlic, or Spanish saffron, or rosemary, or tarragon, or MINT!!!! or ground up peanuts or cashews, or ginger or super goatweed if you must. Heck, grind up some dried banana slices in a mortar and pestle and cake the bird flesh in powdered banana! Get creative. Put whatever you like on it. BUT...



PLEASE -- rub the bird with the spices, don't soak the birds in the spices. Soaking is for cow, pig, goat, lamb.

I find marinades ruin bird meat, and rabbit meat. If it can hop, then rub it; if it can't hop, then marinade it.

Reply:It can be used to make sage tea, which is a refreshing drink, particularly popular in Europe, in the Middle Ages. Gargling with common sage (Salvia Officinalis) tea, helped strengthen gums and keep teeth white and was also a well-known, sometimes very effective laryngitis and sore throat cure. Sage tea can also be used to relieve the discomfort of measles, dizziness, colds, fever, and headaches.



The addition of milk and honey, (as a natural sweetener), made a stimulating drink, enjoyed just as much today as in the Middle Ages. Sage is a natural aid in digestion, and when consumed moderately, the tea can boost insulin activity and reduce blood sugar, thus possibly being a help to diabetics, but your doctor should be consulted before drinking sage tea, if you are diabetic. Never use sage tea to replace your normal drinks, either. It should be noted that this, drunk in excess can be toxic, so should, by recommendation, be saved for special occasions, as a well-deserved treat.

Hera are the treatments in which sage is used.
Reply:That's the way most things work -because of our perception of things.



I think it works and can feel a difference.
