Belated Wishes

[sandmansister]

Gah! The move has apparently stolen most of my gray matter. My apologies for inadvertently missing natalitles of a couple of folks I adore...

Happy Wednesday Birthday to the all-too-talented-and-smart-for-her-own-darn-good rainingdecember!!!

... And Happy yester-Birthday to drema of the wondrous lovely brilliance-ness!!!

I should have my DSL up and running this evening, but in case Mr. Murphy is giving me undue attention, I will be preemptive in birthday wishes this weekend:

Cheers, best wishes and big squeezy wench hugs to mesniu who is much beloved & missed by the Tejas contingent!!!

Slugs and kisses and happy derby bruises to the amazing ange1ofdreams!!!

Oh, and thanks too. :) I was reading how simple it was and thought I could do that this weekend. Then I got to the mortar and pestle part.

Mortar and Pestle

A passable substitute for a mortar and pestle is a good, strong bowl and the end of a rolling pin, or the back of a very strong spoon. Your wrist will hurt because you'll need more pressure, but it works. :)

Oooh, good idea! And for this recipe, the herbs just need a bit of crushing. They don't need to be finely ground or anything so maybe that will make it easier. You might even be able to cheat a little and start the process off with some kitchen shears.
