Sunday, October 11th, 2009

Hi. I’m sorta new here, but would like to get a small tattoo. It would be of a purple orchid and require a lot of shading. Do you have any advice for tattos in Atlanta? If there is nothing good, please say so, I would just go back to my regular guy at my previous home.
All answers much appreciated! Thanks :)

Questions about the Blood Orchid?

Sunday, October 4th, 2009

I know about the movie and all that but I’ve never seen it. I need to know all about the properties of the blood orchid. I’m thinking about writing a Harry Potter fan fiction in which Snape would need to have the flower to make a potion for their side. Can anyone give any info info to this? Maybe a good site where I can do “research” on this for my story?

Sunday, October 4th, 2009

We love to drink Salep, made with powdered orchid tubers, but can not find the powder, or the tubers in the states! Any help would be great..have tried google, yahoo and dogpile searches to no avail.
Amount
Salep (powdered root of orchis mascula) 2 teaspoons 10 g
Sugar 2 tablespoons 25 g
Milk 4 cups 750 g
Cinnamon 3/4 teaspoon 1.5 g
Instruction
Place salep and sugar in a smallsaucepan; mixing well. Add cold milk gradually stirring constantly to prevent lumping. Cook over low heat for 10-15 minutes until thickened and smooth in consistency, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Pour into small mugs or large demitasses. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Serve hot.

6 servings

Don’t need to spell check, just need responses from someone who knows what this is! Thanks!
