When is your friend making this?  If she can
wait until after Thanksgiving, I can give you
some to give to her.

Rue has a very bitter taste, very different
from Rosemary.

I have some rue growing in my perennial border (it has attractive foliage, and is deer-resistant).  This afternoon, I plucked a leaf and chewed it.  To me, it seemed that it had an earthy taste -- like thyme mixed with mushrooms.
