I was looking at some of the recipes in her latest book last night. <br /><br />She IS a knowledgeable lady, and she does research in many areas. Lucky you to be able to attend her herbal/book talk! Her books are filled with interesting trivia that she kind of throws out on subjects that interest her. And her herbal knowledge is backed up with excellent research and experience. <br /><br />I've never read the Beatrix Potter series, though I've seen them. Have you read them?jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-29624291562551689142006-11-25T20:41:00.000-06:002006-11-25T20:41:00.000-06:00Have you seen the 'China Bayles Book of Days' she ...Have you seen the 'China Bayles Book of Days' she has out? It's a neat book, filled with lots of herbal lore and recipes if like me, you like that sort of thing. <br /><br />I was lucky enough to attend a talk she gave at an area herbal guild about her books and herbs in general. She's quite a knowledgeable lady!<br /><br />And did you know she also has a series featuring Beatrix Potter?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-27407829019836562532006-11-25T12:10:00.000-06:002006-11-25T12:10:00.000-06:00I'm also a big China Bayles fan - I do really like...I'm also a big China Bayles fan - I do really like the herb information in the books and having done some work with natural dyes, remember thinking this one was particularly interesting.

I planted it from seed in a pot outside this summer. It grew wonderfully, but since I've brought it indoors for the winter it is getting sparse and pale. I have it setting on my kitchen windowsill with northern exposure. Any suggestions?Bookloggedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00651016653247142255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-28025001498321259882006-11-24T18:20:00.000-06:002006-11-24T18:20:00.000-06:00They are perfect for a light quick read!They are perfect for a light quick read!jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-7130071011953934372006-11-24T17:47:00.000-06:002006-11-24T17:47:00.000-06:00I've been meaning to try these...I like a light se...I've been meaning to try these...I like a light series for unwinding...especially after a heavy or involved book...DebbyMchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11277126404406073860noreply@blogger.com
