Did I mention Jekka's coming this week to Pittsburgh? Oh, yes, I think I did! Patricia Lowry did a wonderful article in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette on Thursday about Jekka. I think she will be pleased. Here is a link to the article called
Jekka's Herb Cookbook. I cooked the two recipes for dinner this evening. They were both hits with The Herbal Husband and me.

| The Herbal Husband Found the Biggest Purslane in His Garden! |
 |
| Purslane and Spinach Salad |
 |
| Oregano and Lemon Pan-Fried Chicken with Mashed Potatoes |
It is a long article about Jekka and the recipes are included. We added some arugula to the salad for some kick because we didn't have a whole lot of purslane. What we did have, we enjoyed. I think you will enjoy both recipes of them. Jekka's Herb Cookbook is available at all of the big bookstores and at
Amazon.com with beautiful photos by Hannah McVicar, her daughter. I have a busy week with the Herb Society in town. I'll try to blog about my adventures. Hot and humid here. No Rain! We need it badly! Hope you had a great day wherever you may be. Talk to you later.
