curry?! who would USE that name? i mean, i love curry, but not THAT much. :P

[yukonsally]

I know a Cherry (in her 40s? older?) and a Basil (mid twenties). Both great people. And a boy around age 15 now named Sage. Poor kid.

There is a realtor around here named Cinnamon Boffa. In fact, here's her site: http://cinnamonboffa.parealtyservices.com/catalog/Maryland

[kati-d.livejournal.com]

I have a friend that is named cinnamon.

I like the name Ginger :)

[tigress-oils.livejournal.com]

I like Apple, Basil, and Ginger.

My favorite, though, is Vidalia!

[starboxx.livejournal.com]

I like Ginger, Cherry, Sage, Kale, Hazel, Angelica(it's either a herb or a spice), and Lavender.

[bellisima87.livejournal.com]

angelica is neither a herb nor a spice..

[starboxx.livejournal.com]

*shrug* It's on several spice/herb list I've seen. Okay, so it's an edible flower.

It says: Angelica (Angelica archangelica).

Angelica - Depending on the variety, flower range from pale lavender-blue to deep rose. It has a flavor similar to licorice. Angelica is valued culinary from the seeds and stems, which are candied and used in liqueurs, to the young leaves and shoots, which can be added to a green salad. Because of its celery-like flavor, Angelica has a natural affinity with fish. The root lends an interesting juniper-like flavor to breads. Often the leaves are minced and used as a part of a court boullion to season poaching liquid. The leaves have a stronger, clean taste and make a interesting addition to salads. In its native northern Europe, even the mature leaves are used, particularly by the Laplanders, as a natural fish preservative. Many people in the cold Northern regions such as Greenland, Siberia, and Finland consider Angelica a vegetable, and eat the stems raw, sometimes spread with butter. Young leaves can be made into a tea.

So, edible flower = herb. :D

I adore Honey

Poppy (seeds?)

[arbus.livejournal.com]

clementine is on my short list. i have a weakness for the name pepper.

i have a friend named penelope and her entire family calls her poppy. i also know a man named basil (pronounced bazz-il, not baze-il, like the herb)

[sayga.livejournal.com]

oh of COURSE! i keep seeing the name Basil everywhere and thinking it was weird. now that you say it's pronounced Bazz-il, i've heard it fairly frequently...at least, i did when i lived in england.

[so-there.livejournal.com]

Persimmon. I don't even know if I spelled it right, but I wouldn't use it anyway (only because it is a food!) I think it sounds neat, though, and could be shortened to Persy/Percy.

[sugar-blaster.livejournal.com]

I was teasing my boyfriend and told him that if I have a boy, I'm naming him Samuel Tortilla!

Because I really wanted some tortilla chips.

[fairycoppie88.livejournal.com]

I like Hazel and love Honey... it's a major guilty pleasure of mine. Could Coco be included in the food category? I adore the name.
