THE SONG OF THE CANDYTUFT FAIRY!
Why am I "Candytuft"?
That I don't know!
Maybe the fairies
First called me so;
Just for a joke;
(I'm in the gardens of most little folk).
Look at my clusters!
See how they grow:
some pink or purple,
Some white as snow;
Petals uneven,
Big ones and small;
Not very tufy-----
No candy at all!
Good Afternoon!.........
This is Pharoah!!!......
She has a full tummy and is once again asleep!
I..... Hope that she didn't eat Cpt.Blood!
I wonder what the Birth flower is for February?
Well the flower is the sweet Violet............
While the stone is the Amethys
Let Us See What The Fairies Like In This Area!
CLOVER------A four-leaf clover can break fairy
spells. Wearing a four-leaf clover in your hat gives

THE SONG OF THE CANTERBURY BELL FAIRY!
Bells that ring from ancient towers---
Canterbury Bells---
Give their name to summer flowers---
Canterbury Bells!
Do the flower-fairies, playing,
Know what those great bells are saying?
Fair, in your purple hat,
Little fairy, tell us that!
"Naught I know of bells in towers---
Canterbury Bells!
Mine are pink or purple flowers---
Canterbury Bells!
When I set them all a-swaying,
Something, too, my bells are saying;
Can'tyou hear them--ding--dong--ding--
Calling fairy-folk to sing?"
Time to take a look at the Herbs!
Caraway (carum carvi)------The leaves may be used in
salads and soups, the seeds in baked goods,
dumplings, cream cheese and meat dishes such as
goulash and pork casserole. The roots can be boiled
as a vegetable and served with a white sauce
Catnip--------------renowned for the euphoria it
causes in cats, also has a few human uses, both
culinary and medicinal. It makes an attractive
border plant if you don't mind frequent feline
visitors.
Now Maybe that is why Pharoah is sound asleep, she
was playing in the catnip!
Catnip tea made from the leaves and flowers may be
taken for coughs, colds, and a bedtime calmative.
Cayenne----------- for the Stomach....?
In many countries, red pepper is believed to be a
stomach-settling digestive aid.
Chamomile------------This perennial is also known as
Roman chamomile. It can be used as a groundcover
since it grows only 4 to 12 inches in height. The
foliage is feathery with an apple scent, and it is
accented by white, daisy-like flowers with
down-turned petals.
Hi!
Sue!
I like for you all to meet a very close friend of
mine.
Her name is Sue, but we all call her Thrill.
Sue! Have you seen Cpt.Blood?
Why!...... No!...... I have not, but I just saw
Glide and he said that he was coming over to meet
your new friends!
