[ANSTHRLD] What is a Tuscan Herb

[Jann Mays]

Even so, I found this recipe of what herbs combined make up the Tuscan Herb
mixture.  Perhaps this will help.  It sounds tasty, and there are certain herbs
in it that I am sure would help the healing process.

“Of course I know how to work it,” said Lupin, waving his hand impatiently, “I helped write it.  I’m ‘Mooney’ – that was my friends’ nickname for me.” (p.254)... “... And that’s how we came to write the Marauder’s Map, and sign it with our nicknames.  Sirius is ‘Padfoot.’  Peter is ‘Wormtail.’  James was ‘Prongs.’ ”  (p. 260)  Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.  J.K. Rowling.  Bloomsbury Publishing, London (1999).
