    Hello everyone:

    I am Trinton or aka "T" which is what my friends and family call me. You can go read my profile to learn my interest etc.

    I joined this group because I love to cook, but just don't' have enough time in a day to cook as much as I would like too.

    I also am trying to learn to eat and cook healthier. Plus, I do all the baking, canning, and cooking during the holidays so I am always looking for tips and tricks of the trade.

    I have always wanted to grow my own herb garden and tried the last two years and have failed horribly.

    If you want to know anymore about me please feel free to read my profile or ask away.

    T

    Hi T! I like your photo website, really beautiful. Feel free to ask whatever ya want to know about herbs, we have some folks here who are great with those. My fave is rosemary- ya just can't kill it, lol!
    I drive my family a little batty at times with my trying to make them healthier, and have learned alot along the way. And yes, you really do need to cut out refined flour and sugar, alas!

    Hello T, from the Norwegian Artic. Hope you make yourself at home here, it really is a pleasant site to be a part of. The people are so helpful and if they don't know will go out of their way to try to find helpfull sites.

    I am a big believer in healthy eating. I'm whats called a forager. I believe in eating what others throw away from their gardens as "weeds" and is more potent in vitamins an minerals. everything from seaweed to chickweed to dandelions, an more. Plus ofcourse the garden varieties itself.

    So welcome!! and enjoy. :stew2:

    Greeting from West Tennessee. Do NOT give up on growing herbs. You can do it. :-D Fresh herbs are just wonderful even though I gripe sometimes about having to wash them. :-D
