Slow down.
Have you ever heard of the Chelsea chop?
Well, I've read about it in my favorite garden book 'The thrifty gardener' by Alys Fowler; actually it was not really a Chelsea chop, because it is usually carried out at the end of May, coïnciding with the RHS Chelsea Flower Show; but the result is as drastic!
By the way, the chopped plant was a sage.
And
got some fresh vegetables from a friend and the sweet peas are in bloom, they spread a wonderfull fragrance;
and
in the evening, dinner with a friend;
in short, it was a very relaxing day today :^)

ReplyDeletei can smell the good fragrance through your beautiful photo. your sage looks great. i am curious how/in what kind of cooking you use sage?
ReplyDeletei like your blue check linen cloth.

to coco: I like to drink sage tea and it is also tasty with chicken or fish. I got that cloth from a friend, it's actually a small cushion and probably Japanese :)
