This year I took the kids the the Virginia Herb Festival. It is in Middletown, VA at Sunflower Cottage. They had a program of talks regarding herbs, different ways to use them and grow them. Since I had the kids with me I wasn't able to listen to the lectures but we did enjoy walking around and looking at the flowers and lavender. I also picked up a couple of herbs that you don't see often, a Bay leaf plant, and chocolate mint. Chocolate mint....mmmm....looking forward to using that! I am sure it can be used in some desserts, someone also suggested infusing vodka and making a chocolate mint martini...now we're talking!
'til next time...
