    which mint? i was just at the nursery and they had an entire hoop house full of mint.

    i also discovered how much fun it is to say hoop house and i’ve been annoying my wife with it. HOOP HOUSE!

      lol! I go to the local butcher shop that has a rack of Salma [TM] products and get ‘mint’

      Technically, it’s yerba buena, which is Spanish for ‘good herb’

      And Cheech and Chong notwithstanding, it’s not marijuana.

      A quick search says it’s neither peppermint nor spearmint, it’s a unique herb.

      Again, not marijuana

      Also, I thought ‘hoop house’ was a typo for ‘hot house.’
