Scarborough Faire

Are you going to Scarborough Faire?
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
Remember me to one who lived there.
She once was a true love of mine.

Have her make me a cambric shirt
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
Without no seams, nor fine needle work.
Then she'll be a true love of mine.

I used to listen to this song and never really listen to the words ... it was much later in life that I realized parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme are herbs ...

I bought a pot of basil during Christmas to make bruschetta, the cost of buying a fresh pack and a potted plant was only about 1 dollar. I don't know if it'll grow in Singapore weather, decided to give it a try. It simply flourish ... together with the rosemary ... I'm left to buy parsely and thyme now.
