Welcome to Weekend Herb Blogging #282 and Happy Mother’s Day to you all!

We had some lovely dishes this week, sweet and savory and oh so yummy!

Haalo of Cook (almost) anything at least once made some lovely Scandinavian Apple Cake.

She features her favorite type of apple – the Royal Gala and has some interesting facts about it to tell.

Thinking of Mother’s Day and her Mom Haalo chose to bake this lovely cake.

Lovely Anna of Morsels & Musings features purple heirloom carrots this week.

What lovely color these unique carrots add to a very simple but yummy dish!

Marija unfortunately forgot to tell me her blog address – so I cannot link to this yummy recipe yet. Hope she will send it soon!

Stash from The Spamwise Chronicles was playing around with carrots too.

He made a Heirloom Carrot Salad with Olive, Capers and Mint.

What a lovely combination of flavors!

Huan of Eat.Live.Recipe made some lovely pasta.

Full of flavors with tomatoes, eggplant and anchovies: Tomato Eggplant Pasta

Plus it is made in under 5 minutes, now this is a real treat isn’t it?

Kalinda from Wheat-Free Meat-Free is telling us some useful things about stir frys and about those lovely long green beans she was turnign into a lovley stir fry.

She made Long Bean Stir Fry.

Claudia from Honey from Rock in Hawaii is talking about gangal this week.

Honestly I’d never thought of using galangal – which I really love by the way – in a sweet dish.

Claudia used it along with guava to bake a lovely Guava Crumb Cake with Galangal. What a lovely and yummy treat!

Elly of Nutmegs, seven is paying around with rubharb.

She made some lovely Rhubarb and Ginger Chutney and Rhubarb Orange and Ginger Jam

While i do not fancy rhubarb too much I really think these preserves look very yummy and worth a try.

Janet of Taste Space used swiss chard to create some unusual but lovely wraps.

She made Zesty Cashew Orange Spread and Apple swiss Chard Wraps.

Now doesn’t that sound lovely?
