In Shaw (an historically gentrified blog): Herbal arrangement

Herbal arrangement

I blantently stole this idea from my neighbor IT. We both grow the same things peppermint (the peppermint that used to grow in my yard, jumped the fence and now grows in their yard), basil, tomatoes, thyme, etc. Well I noticed that IT or B had put some of the flowering peppermint and green basil in a vase.
Well my house got a little musty so I figured I'd take the idea to slightly change the smell by taking a lot of the basil, flowering peppermint and thyme and setting it in the living room. I think it looks nice, and I can smell mint without having to go outside.

History, me complaining, history, stuff about the immediate hood (Truxton Circle) and the surrounding neighborhood (Shaw), gentrification, demographics, and some more history.

In Shaw (now with more gentrification) is about the changes going on in the Shaw neighborhood of Washington, DC. Mainly the eastern section of the neighborhood that is still "transitional". Topics range from horrid community meetings, to culture clashes, to remodeling and the unromantic view of living in an old house. This Old House, bite me! Please note that this is a personal blog and does not represent anyone else's opinion except my own, not my employer, not my universities, not that of my family, church, friends or neighbors. Just me, so I retain the right to post or not to post any irresponsible tripe that comes into my head.
