For colds, drink chamomile or sage tea.For strength, eat thyme with your meal. For easing sadness, sleep on a pillow stuffed with thyme.

For staying young, smell rosemary frequently. ;)
For attracting money, carry basil in your pockets.
For indigestion, chew parsley.
My Gran would tell us to study with a vase of rosemary next to us as it would help us remember in the exam.

ReplyDeleteLavender keeps the fleas away! And is the best thing for a kitchen burn. It stops the burning process immediately and you are left with less of a scar and less pain. Lavender should be in every kitchen for this reason alone!! And always plant rosemary at your front gate for protection!
