Groundcover thymes are also a great herb to grow in containers and hanging baskets, softly spilling over the sides of the container as they grow. Continue reading

I was talking with my friend Lynn last week. And she has a field of dandelions ☺️ that she was ready to mow down😨 When she she asked if they were good for anything, I quickly answered “Yes!”
So glad she asked☺️ Lynn runs the popular low-carb blog TravelingLowCarb.com and just so happens dandelion greens are nutritious and low-carb.
In fact, you can eat the entire dandelion plant. Dandelions are native to Eurasia, and were brought over by early settlers who grew them in their gardens as food and herbal.
For all my friends who have dandelions in your gardens (dandelions coming soon to my garden), here’s a few suggestions of what you can do with this popular ‘weed’: Continue reading
As I was looking for seed starting supplies, I came across this really cool seed starting kit that included everything you need to get started ☺️

Also, you may find weaker leggy growth developing on an herb plant that you’ve brought home from a garden center or green grocer. Continue reading

And I am sharing with you what happened to my daughter because I don’t want it to happen to anyone else! Continue reading
When I brought in a bunch of garlic chives from the garden to make Garlic Chives with Chili Garlic Sauce, my daughter asked me: What’s the difference between chives and garlic chives?
At the moment, my answer to her was that chives are round and hollow and taste of mild onion, whereas garlic chives are flat and taste of mild garlic.
Later I thought I’d elaborate a bit on the differences, as well as similarities between the two plants. And added my cooking notes for these mildly flavoured alliums 🍴 Continue reading
When garlic chives are plentiful in the garden, I make this super simple and delicious quick stir-fry side dish with them.
Here’s how to make garlic chives with chili garlic sauce. Enjoy 🙂 Continue reading
