Herbs for tea

I'm planning to create a herb garden this summer. I can't wait to get started. It will be small but have all the herbs I use when cooking. I love to have lemon balm for tea. Did you know it is pronounced "HERB" not "ERB". I always had trouble with that.




I love the month of May and here we are again.
"Would you like to join me for some peppermint & honey tea to celebrate a new month, Mr. Ed?"


"No, I don't like that.. I'll wait 'til you have catnip tea." Only that would please my palate."

"Well, La Tea Dah, Ed!"


Here's to you, Eat, drink & be hairy.


hugs, Deb

  2. Cheers! I've put catnip in my tea before...it's a mint after all...

    Say, I wonder how a catnip mint julep would taste?

  4. My catnip plant is the only herb that survived the winter in my garden. Lemon Balm tea sounds lovely.

  7. In our harsh weather nothing grows well. I'm feeling quite envious ,you know. What possessed me to live in such a climate...ugh! Wonder if the little gray cat could be wooed with some nip.
