Love the photo of your herb cabinet and appreciate all the herbal inspiration you send out, Kami – I wish my herbs were that photogenically organized! – I can relate to your morning routine, though. Every morning I make coffee for my husband and an herbal tea for myself. Lately, instead of looking into my tea and spice cabinet, I’ve been inspired to use something fresh from my garden – sometimes augmented by one or the other item from the cabinet, I admit. There is good tea material out there practically any time of the year in most years, here where I live and the winters are mild. This winter, I fell in love with a mix of Cleveland sage leaves, mixed with (dried) hibiscus calyces. They balance out each other’s extremes, and the good news is that you can make a kind of pesto out of the sage leaves, after the “hard” flavor has been taken out of them by making tea. It goes well with turkey dishes. (I learned this in a class about cooking with native herbs with Antonio Sanchez).

In reply to Suanne. HI Suanne! You are so welcome. Good, I am so glad you are inspired to bring your garden into your kitchen to heal yourself! So great you have an herbal garden to work with.

Thanks Kami. This is just what was needed to begin a busy week. I’ve jumped on and off the morning coffee routine for years…currently back on. On a cold Northern CA morning it’s just too easy to grab a mug of coffee that already brewed and smells so inviting.
Currently my herb garden is full of amazing goodness and I, once again, am ready to ditch the jitters and enjoy a comforting, healthy home brew. Thanks for all you do.
I do enjoy your post, wisdom, and the knowledge you share with us.

Inspired! I love your book and was really giddy to meet you this weekend! Looking forward to trying this and maybe slowing my relationship with my morning mud. 🙂
