Rosemary is one of the best-loved herbs and one of my all-time favorites. I look for ways to use it in cooking and will snap up bath and hair products at the store that contain it (some of it's medicinal uses throughout the ages have been to prevent baldness and heal wounds). I never tire of the fragrance and often use it in cooking, so there is always some rosemary in my garden. Often you can find me sitting next to the rosemary plant on my deck, sipping a glass of wine and reading.
"It's a familiar, happy dilemma of the season: We scrutinize the offerings at the farm stand or farmers market, trying to decide what to buy, when everything looks so good...Arriving back home, our arms full of summer, we have half a thought that, perhaps, just maybe, we bought too much. Then we sample the wild blueberries, and think about all the dishes we'll make with our bounty, and the voice of reason grows faint." From the Farm Stand, Gourmet Magazine, July 1993
