If you find yourself plucking petals over whether or not you actually love Valentine's Day, it's good to remember that February 14 is a nice excuse to honor that special someone in your life. Why not reinvent the holiday by pampering your best friend or beautiful lover with pure herbal decadence? 

The holiday season can be a hectic time with feasts and gatherings and travel, but it also offers a special opportunity to reflect on the precious things that bring joy and comfort to our lives. A hot cup of tea, a spoonful of fire cider, a bowl of delicious curried soup, or a dab of homemade perfume on the wrist are all small reminders of how herbs enhance our everyday experiences...

It's snack time!

How is the autumn weather shaping up where you are? While we have had a bit of lingering summer here in the Pacific Northwest, the nights are getting cooler and the mornings have a bit of a crisp nip in the air. As the season changes, cool fall mornings call for a spicy, warming tea. This tea recipe has the added benefit of being full of good-for-you herbs like Elderberries and Cinnamon!
