SAGE
There’s no mistaking the strong evergreen scent of soft and supple sage, that quintessential ingredient to your Sunday roast stuffing. This herb has a long history for healing, supposedly curing everything from snake bites and eye problems to epilepsy and intoxication. It has even been prescribed as an aphrodisiac!
It was believed that sage stimulated the brain, therefore, increasing powers of concentration, memory and reasoning. From this, the word “sage” took on another meaning – wise person!
