What Herb "Cures All"?
Do you know which herb is good for almost any disease or infection, improves circulation, and maintains healthy cholesterol and blood pressure levels? And it is also a natural antibiotic and boosts the immune system. But that's not all. It also prevents or clears bacterial infection, lowers fever by increasing perspiration, and reduces blood pressure, cholesterol and sugar levels. It is even an expectorant! But that still is not the end of it. It also fights acne, age spots, ringworm, lupus and abscesses on the skin. It has also been used in treating upper respiratory infections (especially bronchitis), urinary infections, asthma, sinusitis, arthritis, and ulcers. And it even prevents weight gain! Hint: It has been called the stinking rose.
Muscle Pain?
You probably have heard of using ginger to ease nausea and indigestion (remember the action carminative from an earlier post on parsley?), but did you know that ginger is Nature's ibuprofen? It is an excellent anti-inflammatory, naturally taking away that pain in your shoulder or in your legs. It also relieves abdominal cramps. In my much younger days I kept crystallized ginger by my bedside for those occasional menstrual cramps that were inhibiting my ability to sleep.

Afternoon Tea Menu Selection
Reservations are required at least one week in advance.
When you make reservations for a Sunday (11 AM, Noon, or 1 PM), the Afternoon Tea Menu for your party (minimum of 4 people) is selected - an item from each tier. For members of your party requesting a Dessert Tea instead of Afternoon Tea, a selection is made only from Tier 3. Both Afternoon Tea and Dessert Tea include a small pot of tea and a glass of chilled Lavender Lemonade. Cost is $15 plus tax for each Afternoon Tea and $10 plus tax for each Dessert Tea.
Reservations made for a Monday are only for private groups (minimum of 4, maximum of 16). The Tea Room is exclusively available to the group from 11 AM to 2 PM. This is a wonderful environment for an organization meeting, family reunion or a birthday party. Only Afternoon Tea including a small pot of tea and a glass of chilled Lavender Lemonade is served. The specific menu items are selected for the group during the time reservations are made. The cost is $15 plus tax for each individual.
