tPCC: Magical Herbalsim: Parsley

Today I actually busted out my three notebooks from when I took the herbalism class that garnered my certification. Feeling antsy about herbs for some reason. Never one to ignore a feeling, I'm down a rabbit hole and am inviting you along. (Mind you, I had to take them outside to dust them free of LOTS of cobwebs! lol) (Gross)

This will be an electronic swap. You're going to do some research on one herb, and we're going to start with Parsley. Ya can't get much more basic than parsley. ;-) You will send your partner 3 facts that you learned. There are no right or wrong answers, but saying "Parsley is green" will get you a PM from me. lol

"Facts" can take the form of: medicinal use, ritual use, correspondences, deities associated with, magical properties, historic uses, etc.

Please share links to sources, even if it's Wiki.

Any anecdotal stories you wanna share... like that time there was a piece of parsley in your teeth FOR HOURS and no one told you, now's the time. =D

Recipes (culinary or still room) that strongly feature the topic herb are also welcome and count as a fact.

Dr Google

Herbazest ...which is an odd name for a site.

The bit of history that started all this.

The site I landed on first.
