?
It is Tim. My baby is looking very pretty with it's little pompom flowers. I never use it in cooking, bad for the heart apparently, and hearts break easily in our family. :'(
Oh, dear - just picked some for the Jambalaya!
I wonder if you can take cuttings of bay ??? Very nice plant. :D
I never knew it was bad for the heart :o ::)
Why is that? ???
I believe bay leaves are slightly narcotic but very OK to consume, especially with lamb ! ;D :D
EJ, is everything ok?? :(
;D Yes Mrs Frog, everything is very summer like. Hearts cause a problem for our family, that is all, and when dad had his first heart attack bay was on a list of things to avoid. I grow them though, but because they are such good evergreen trees, just never ever cook with them.
Well you live and learn, i use quite a lot of bay leaves in my cooking, in fact ive only just stocked up again this weekend, but OH has high BP, so perhaps i should stop using them ???
Oh dear - that's another herb for the bin :'( .... along with the Paprika which is also getting a bad press at the moment :o
Lovely photo though Tim :)
