  Lemon Verbena is a delightful plant to have in the garden, or even the house, graceful, aromatic, with a multitude of uses. As a culinary herb it imparts a lemony flavor of course, but with a softer edge and almost a silky nature. An aromatic treasure that's easy to grow and use!  
 
 
   
 
  And now for something completely different... cous cous cake!!! The best new dessert twist since cornmeal cookies. Fabulous fruit flavor combinations, with no added sugar and very little fat! Simple, easy and quick this might be a new favorite for any time of the year.  
 
 
   
 
 

As the gardens get 'put to bed' for the winter, and the canning and preparing of the harvest for storage winds down...take a break, enjoy the colors of Autumn. Have a relaxing cup of lemon verbena tea, before the seed catalogs arrive and you start planning next year's garden.

Please remember to mark your calendar for the 2009 Herb Sale in April, and the Spring herb Course at Missouri Botanical Garden- May 18, 2009. The Fall course was a great success, and thoroughly enjoyed ( especially the preview tasting of recipes from the new Saint Louis Herb Society Cookbook - due for May 2009 release ) by all who attended.

Take some sage advice from the perennials, tis the season for a little 'dormancy'!!!!
