Herb of the Month: Linden

An antioxidant reduces fatty tissue in blood vessels, sore throats, headaches, nervous stomachs, and insomnia, reduces fevers, may lower blood pressure by relaxing the heart and improving blood flow.   Safe for Children.  Do not take within 2 hours of taking vitamin or minerals. It will interfere with absorption of the nutrients.

Historically: Lithuanian Women once made sacrifices to the Linden tree as part of a ritual.

Very popular in France as a after dinner drink. The drink is called Tilleul.

Spiritually: Linden protects, gives luck, immortality, and love. In Europe they hang branches over their door for protection. Linden works well in good luck charms.

Crockpot Bacon Cheese Potatoes

Ingredients: 1/4 pound bacon, diced – I cook it first in the oven so that it is “done” and browned then I dice it and place in the crock pot.

2 medium onions thinly sliced.

4 medium potatoes thinly sliced

1/2 pound cheddar cheese, thinly sliced (shredded is fine)

Pepper, green onions, and parsley

1/2 stick butter
