Repurpose Rosemary

Taking it slow this morning And taking the time to cut select sprigs from this dried #rosemary bush to use as #bbq skewers. Open fire cooking is all we do in the summer🌿🌿🌿
"Arabian physicians used rosemary to comfort the brain, strengthen the memory, and restore speech...in times of epidemic and plagues in Europe, rosemary was burned, and simmered in open pots to kill germs and viruses in the air thus preventing them from spreading. Rosemary was the key in controlling the spread of disease in Europe because it's ability to kill airborn germs on contact made it a natural germicide and disinfectant."- Rashan Abdul Hakim

Bug Repellant

Bugs don't like smoke. If you don't have citronella, put some Sage & Frankincense in the air.

Majestic Sage

Beautiful garden #sage bush I had to prune at the new plot. So much sage, so little time..
Sage has one of the longest histories of use of any culinary or medicinal herb. Ancient Egyptians used it as a fertility drug (Bown, 1995). In the first century C.E. Greek physician Dioscorides reported that the aqueous decoction of sage stopped bleeding of wounds and cleaned ulcers and sores. He also recommended sage juice in warm water for hoarseness and coughs. It was used by herbalists externally to treat sprains, swelling, ulcers, and bleeding. Internally, a tea made from sage leaves has had a long history of use to treat sore throats and coughs; often by gargling. It was also used by herbalists for rheumatism, excessive menstrual bleeding, and to dry up a mother's milk when nursing was stopped. It was particularly noted for strengthening the nervous system, improving memory, and sharpening the senses. Sage was officially listed in the United States Pharmacopoeia from 1840 to 1900.
