Oh my goodness, those hops are gorgeous. I love vine-y bine-y things. My bine (thank you for that - new word of the day) is not nearly as impressive. I planted three but only one survived. It was for my husband for home brewing, but since learning all of its medicinal benefits, I've claimed it back.

I'm going to read up on the brain aspect some because I've got a family matter that is undiagnosed and yet quite concerning of late, and it would be something my dad might consider trying. Now I'm wishing I would have tinctured the hops rather than letting them hang there and freeze (so pretty to look at though).

Lovely post! Wish we could pass things to each other though our computer screens. xx
