Weekend Herb Blogging is a blog event where people have a chance to showcase a favorite vegetable or herb in any dish. I love this event as we come to learn more things about herbs, vegetables, plants, edible flowers and fruit around the world. The last time, It also gave me a chance to meet new people and make new friends and I hope that I shall make some new ones this time as well.
I am very glad to be hosting the Weekend Herb Blogging for a second time. As you all know the event was originally created by Kalyn, of Kalyn’s Kitchen and now managed by Haalo, of Cook (almost) Anything at least once.
Thanks to everyone who sent in recipes for sharing your delicious discoveries. Enjoy!
