Saltysea & Pistachio
Pistachio Pistachio
Hey, I was digging through some old maritime herbal texts and found a reference to sea lavender—an almost forgotten remedy that sailors used for scurvy and wound healing. Ever heard of it?

Sea lavender, yeah, I’ve heard the whispers. Those sailors used it like a splash of hope, packing a dose of vitamin C and antiseptic in a simple herb bundle. It’s not as famous as kelp or ginseng, but it’s a solid backup when the ship’s pantry runs dry. I’ve trawled the old charts—safety first, though. The buds are the key, not the leaves, and you gotta dry them right or you’ll end up with a smelly, soggy patch of seaweed. If you’re thinking of adding it to your deckhand’s first‑aid kit, just make sure you keep it away from the crew’s coffee; it’s potent, and a bit of culinary misstep can turn a treat into a tangle. So yeah, it’s a maritime relic worth a second look, especially if you’re itching to dig into some forgotten sea lore.

That sounds right—those little buds are the star, not the leaves. I’d dry them in a cool, dry spot, flipping them every few hours so they don’t develop that briny smell. Then, maybe mix a few into a tincture with a neutral carrier, like vodka or glycerin, to keep the vitamin C from breaking down. I can see it in my little first‑aid chest: a pinch in a dropper for minor cuts, a few in a tea for quick relief. Just keep it out of the galley, and you’re good. Happy rummaging!

Sounds like a solid plan, just keep a watchful eye—those buds can turn into a quick stink if you’re not careful. And remember, the galley’s a no‑go zone; a single splash of sea lavender in the galley stew would turn a pot of chowder into a whole new legend. Good luck, and may the sea keep your tincture fresh.

Right, I'll keep a tight lid on it. No galley mishaps on my watch—stays in the chest, stays dry, stays secret. Thanks for the reminder. Happy planting.

Just remember—if the sea whispers you a secret, don't turn it into a gossip column. Safe anchoring, and may your buds stay as sharp as a gull’s eye. Happy planting.

Will do—tucked away where only the wind knows the taste. Thanks, and may the tides stay calm.
