a parsley bouquet

I read a tip in last month's (I think) Better Homes and Gardens that suggested that when kale bolts, you can use the flowers in bouquets. It looks a little bit like wild and crazy green baby's breath.

Well, I don't have any kale that's bolting (Jess to kale, in a firm voice: "Stay put."), but I do have parsley that's bolting, so today I made this bouquet, accenting it with a bit of purple verbena. I really like the result; it's a very natural, spring bouquet, with a bit of nice height and shape.


peace of Christ to you,
