Laugh

Thank you, Lord, for the laugh in the herb aisle at the flower market.

Having Mike along with me while shopping for herbs proved to be a unique experience. I loved seeing what caught his eye. I spun around when I heard, "Wow, that has a kick to it!" I discovered he'd plucked a leaf from Oregano 'Hot & Spicy' and tasted it. I laughed and then realized that, in all the years I'd shopped for herbs, I'd never plucked off a leaf for tasting. 'Hot & Spicy' now has a home in the kitchen garden, and I smile each time I see it. Sometimes I even pluck off a leaf and...
We have a community herb garden in the middle of a roundabout nearby. I have certainly been known to pluck a leaf for tasting so that I take the right thing home with me. I guess it is the obvious thing to do. So glad you have some hot and spicy to enjoy whenever you feel you need to add a bit of spice to your day Janet.

I didn't know oregano came in a Hot and Spicy flavor. Your story made me smile...

Lovely herb shot and I loved your story to go with it, Janet. I also didn't know there was a hot version of oregano.

You've taught us something new here today - no more just plain old oregano! Neat story.

It won't seem so hot in some Italian dish which I'm sure you will make!

Not seen / heard of 'hot and spicy' oregano before - sounds like a great addition to the herb garden. Lovely shot.
