I found this little treasure of a book in an antique store, and purchased it.  A few thousand copies were published in 1992, 1993, and 1994.  The author, originally from Michigan, lived in East Texas for awhile.

  I was extremely happy that I had purchased it, because it contains many unusual culinary recipes with herbs (even sorrel, an herb, vegetable which we have recently had a hard time locating), and edible flowers (for example Stuffed Squash Flowers).  It also contains ways to cultivate the herbs including  sorrel.   It also tells which herbs are annual and which are perennial.

 Written by this lady, the book contains quite a few uses of herbs for health.  For example, did you know that dill tea can help hiccups?  In Hungary, they use caraway tea for this purpose to help a hiccuping infant.

This book will be a useful resource for our kitchen garden.
