I know nothing about herbs and should know more because I am so allergic to certain medicines.<br /><br />Will tell Jean what you would like her to tell about. <br /><br />You are welcome.

There is so much more to herbs that are easy to do..even for people that have never done it before.<br />I was thinking last night about Annie's question, and if you do not have a place to hang herbs, using and old screen or a cookie rack, will work, the turning is needed tho, a few times a week..til they are resonably dry, then they can be crushed, and put in jars, or left whole..I still put a bay leaf in with them....if there is a a lot... Bay leaves in dry goods in the kitchen is a great bug preventative....in the bottom of my flour can I have some ( I leave the flour in the bag).<br />I would love to hear more from Jean on her drying and preserving!!! always neat to learn from others.<br />Thanks so much for all your work with this blog.SueAnnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4005870656044436056.post-38865750261167536402013-08-20T07:25:16.662-04:002013-08-20T07:25:16.662-04:00Thank you, Sue Ann for answering Annie's quest...Thank you, Sue Ann for answering Annie's question. <br /><br />MarilynNew York State Of Mindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01079961105585950354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4005870656044436056.post-73467986012091677402013-08-19T22:19:59.588-04:002013-08-19T22:19:59.588-04:00You can tie your herbs in bunches, and hang them u...You can tie your herbs in bunches, and hang them upside down to dry....if you don't have a hook in the ceiling for this purpose, then you can hang them form anything you have, that has enough of a hook so you can loop the thread over it- dry out of sunlight.SueAnnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4005870656044436056.post-43425347760123473082013-08-19T17:21:45.794-04:002013-08-19T17:21:45.794-04:00Hi Annie,

She was trying to figure our what to have for a post next week-I think you gave her the answer. I also know Edward will be so happy to hear about the fruit casserole.<br /><br />MarilynNew York State Of Mindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01079961105585950354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4005870656044436056.post-84867676546615182642013-08-19T17:19:17.491-04:002013-08-19T17:19:17.491-04:00Hi ga447,

The first recipe listed jewel weed. I was wondering of it has to be gathered fresh, or if you gather (for this the flowers or other recipes)leaves and dry them to use them later on. I know most would gather herbs early in the day, is there a particular time or way you choose to gather herbs and store. Are essential oils considered an English product, or do you have Amish or Mennonite sources for the oils? Do you have anything that would be very good to use on extreme dry scaly skin, that would not irritate sensitive skin? Is there any particular herbs or salves you might use on tender baby skin for diaper rash etc.? Thank you for sharing. I also wanted to say Edward's Grandmother's Fruit Casserole was a hit with the Preacher at the church dinner. He said yesterday it was the best he has ever eaten, and requested the recipe for his good wife. He said he went back for seconds that day, but it had been gobbled up (he grinned when he said this!) Thank you again for sharing that!anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03269208573774815462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4005870656044436056.post-39925088287435797322013-08-19T15:46:23.363-04:002013-08-19T15:46:23.363-04:00I have rosemary and thyme do I just let it dry on ...I have rosemary and thyme do I just let it dry on trays and turn them over every once in awhile or do I hang them?http://thankfullga447https://www.blogger.com/profile/09752118265182467689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4005870656044436056.post-60479029437698637812013-08-19T13:36:03.518-04:002013-08-19T13:36:03.518-04:00Hi Chasity,
