RECIPES FROM RITA: MARY GARDEN IDEAS

Mint – since this herb used for tithing in Bible days is an invasive herb, it’s great for containers. So many kinds, from peppermint to spearmint to ginger, mojito and chocolate mint. We make cream mints for Mother’s Day and finely chopped fresh mint is so good in them. (That’s the recipe I’m sharing today).

Basil – the legend is that basil was found growing outside of Christ’s tomb after He resurrected. For containers, there’s a small leafed basil called globe or minuet. Leaves are so small no chopping needed.

Dill – Another tithing herb mentioned by Jesus, and yummy with seafood and potatoes. Dukat and Fernleaf are good specimens.

Cilantro –  Analagous with the manna of the Bible, the seed is called coriander. This bolts to seed in hot weather, so take that into consideration.

Thyme – French and English are the gold standards, and there are creeping thymes that hang nicely over the containers edge. 

Marigold – For Mary! Calendua is a lovely marigold with edible flowers.

RECIPE: CREAM MINTS

Let the little ones hand form them or use molds. When using molds, roll the mints in granulated, sanding or sparkling sugar before putting into molds.

Ingredients
4 oz cream cheese, softened (use block, not spreadable cream cheese)
1 tablespoon butter, softened
4 cups powdered sugar, plus a bit extra for forming mints if necessary
1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
1/8 teaspoon vanilla
Food coloring (optional)

Instructions
Beat cream cheese and butter together, then add 2 cups sugar, blending well.
Add extracts, and then rest of powdered sugar.
Dough should be very stiff and not sticky – like a play dough consistency so you may need to add a bit more sugar.
Add a tiny bit of food coloring and blend.
Roll dough into teaspoon sized balls.
Place on parchment lined baking sheet and dip the tines of a fork in powdered sugar and gently but firmly press down on each mint.
OR roll into balls, then in granulated, sanding or sparkling sugar, then press into molds, smoothing tops.
Store at room temperature for a week in single layers or in refrigerator for longer storage.
Can also be frozen.

Prayer to St. Jude for the sick

St. Jude, you witnessed the healing power of our Lord Jesus.  You saw His compassion for the sick and dying.  You yourself touched the sick, shared the sorrows of the mournful, and encouraged the despairing.  You received this authority and healing power to work wonders, to cure the incurable, to make people whole.  We ask you to intercede with our brother, Jesus, to send His saving grace to heal the sickness and suffering of all who are ill, to uplift their despondent spirits, and to instill hope in their hearts. Amen.
