I promised a pic of my rosemary so here it is! I'm very excited about how it is turning out, yes...that is a McDonalds shake cup, works really well actually.

This is what I've been up to this week...first, my rosemary has outgrown the dome on the mcdonald's cup and is ready to plant in a real pot, Second, I have been very busy making dandelion jelly and violet syrup, so much fun, I love spring!

The jelly and syrup are really very easy, I am an herbalist with an affinity for the wild plants so most of my jelly comes from the wild. I do like to experiment with flavor combinations though, the dandelion jelly I pictured is dandelion/raspberry and the syrup is violets and vanilla. It doesn't take long to make and as long as you pay attention, anyone can do it. Even children (with parental supervision, it is boiling hot)can make this recipe. Children are much more brave and experimental than most adults tend to be and can come up with some really odd but delicious combinations. I know a 5 yr old that wanted to make grass and chocolate jelly, we did not do that particular recipe but it goes to show how children are not afraid to try something. If anyone is interested in my recipe I'll be happy to share it next time I am on the boards. Love and Light!!
