O, dear Rosemary!
You’re a prize in the kitchen.
So delicious with chicken.
Lovely even with salmon.

Out of this world with potatoes.
Surprisingly sublime with tomatoes.
But I’m in complete woes.
O, dear Rosemary!

How do I keep you happy?
How much water and sunshine do you need?
Should I let you be as if a weed?
Will you please tell me?

They say rosemary is perennial, and some of my friends report their rosemary bushes grow up to their waists. Sometimes even blooming! I have never been successful in making mine come back every year, let alone bloom!

The key with rosemary, I think, is to leave it alone and not pamper it. Don’t overwater or overfeed, both of which I tend to do. I guess you can say I’m killing my rosemary with kindness.

Unless, of course, my problem is that I clip it too often and too much. Like when I made that salmon.

Fiesta Friday #439

Happy early 4th, guys! How are you all going to celebrate? Is anybody thinking of having a block party? Wouldn’t that be fun, huh?! A couple of years ago, just before the pandemic, we celebrated with several of our immediate neighbors, potluck style. We had such a good time we promised to repeat it annually. […]

So, the elderflower champagne experiment was a bust, unfortunately. And I spent SO. MUCH. TIME! I trimmed off every little stem from the blossoms since the green parts are reportedly toxic. That alone took me a couple of hours! Pretty much my whole afternoon was spent making the elderflower concoction. It was supposed to ferment […]

School is out, finally! Hurray, hurray! So now, what?! The first day I don’t have to go to work and I’m not sure what to do. Too many choices! I’ve never been a decisive decider. Sleep. That’s the first order of business. Everything will become clearer after a good, sound sleep. So I’m just going […]

A friend from work who knows about my blog, and no doubt has been perusing it, recently commented about my recipes. She tried a few and found them to be, in her words, delicious gourmet fancy food. She marvels at the food photos on the blog and contends that I must spend an excessive amount […]

Gosh, it got so hot this week! I can’t stand the heat, guys! So I got out of the kitchen. We’re subsisting on salads and cold sandwiches. Don’t feel sorry for us. We’re eating well, truly. Yesterday’s salad looked like this. Pasta salad for the win! With minimal cooking and prep other than boiling the […]
