I have got to see where I can get some fenugreek to savor it and perhaps I can somehow remember why that scent keeps coming back to me every so often, every couple of years.Linda Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364078667554676592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-37224602107324283922016-03-09T04:32:17.405-05:002016-03-09T04:32:17.405-05:00Lovely poem, I read it several times and slowed ri...Lovely poem, I read it several times and slowed right down and savoured the scents and memories! This was my first introduction to Fenugreek, I hadn't heard of it, but I guess I may have had it in a curry somewhere!Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03078608554226394069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-54132331343646366102016-03-08T17:26:47.508-05:002016-03-08T17:26:47.508-05:00I toss the seeds (in generous quantities, into thi...I toss the seeds (in generous quantities, into things which are getting a long, slow cook.

I must try growing it and also eating it, how do you use it? I read up on how scents can bring back long lost memories, ones we don't even know we remember.<br />Linda Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364078667554676592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-28703616986024432642016-03-08T14:22:14.439-05:002016-03-08T14:22:14.439-05:00Scents are such powerful memory triggers aren'...Scents are such powerful memory triggers aren't they?<br />And once, just once, we succeeded in growing fenugreek.
