Drying some marigold, lavender (mostly leaves), and oregano to mix in with the goldenrod I harvested last week for tea. Also, how is it September already? The fuck!?

Some shots of newcomer Oregano the Crow just chilling. Another feature I'm seeing of Oregano is that their beak can't perfectly close on both sides.
BTW this was taken at roughly 7 pm which explains why they're appearing so brown instead of the usual black/blue/brown.

the herbalist sources i have and trust don't mention a damn thing about oregano so i've made up my own correspondences damn it
oregano?
she's that bitch for family and friendship spells and she makes a great offering to ancestors especially. she's ruled by air and mercury which is a fun break from the gendered norm. she's all about communication and understanding. having an emotional issue? allow her airy logic to release and counter-balance the heated tempers and watery eyes.
-petty family feud of some kind? use oregano to prepare a meal and then invite over the offending party/ies to hash out your differences while in fellowship. allow her communicative properties to soothe everyone's egos and open up new paths to mutual understanding.
-take a bath in oregano and salt before a difficult cord cutting spell to prepare your body to release its attachment smoothly. can also be the ritual in and of itself for less intense relational cleansing
-put her in sachets or bowls that only have a few ingredients to help bond strengthen and meld their existing energies
-use oregano oil to anoint behind the ears of your partner before renewing your vows as a promise to always hear and understand one another
got more? include em!

Plant of the Day
Thursday 3 August 2023
The clusters of small pink flowers of Origanum vulgare (oregano, English marjoram, wintersweet) are popular with pollinators. This woody-based perennial herb has small, aromatic leaves and makes a great edge to a border or addition to a meadow.

Slow Cooker Whole Chicken with Stuffing
2 carrots diced
1 small yellow onion diced
2 celery ribs diced
5 lbs. whole chicken
½ cup salted butter melted
1 tsp. dried thyme
1 tsp. dried sage (use oregano if you don't have sage)
½ tsp. paprika
6 oz. box stove top stuffing I use savory herb style but you can use any kind of stove-top such as chicken, turkey or cornbread style.
Clean out the inside of the chicken by removing any extra parts or packaging and discard.
Add the carrots, onion and celery to the bottom of the slow cooker. Add the chicken.
Pour over the melted butter and sprinkle over the thyme, sage, paprika, salt and pepper.
Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours or HIGH for 5-6 hours.
Remove chicken to a platter and cover with foil. Now you'll want to remove some of the liquid from the slow cooker, leave only 1.5 cups of liquid along with the veggies. (you can use the extra liquid for gravy or another recipe). Add the box of stove-top stuffing to the veggies and 1.5 cups of liquid in the slow cooker. Replace the lid. Let sit for 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork when the time is up.
I add the chicken back to the slow cooker with the stuffing for a pretty presentation. If I was just serving this to my family, I would slice and serve the chicken on the platter and serve the stuffing from the slow cooker.
