Did you know that many bugs just can’t stand garlic?
You can peel a few cloves and place around the base of your rose bushes to deter aphids.
You can pulverize some garlic and make a spray to spray on your veggies…. keeps those bugs away. Or you could just plant garlic around the plants tht seem to be targeted. All these solutions work - and it might even keep a vampire or two at bay.

I keep my garlic out on the counter too.
Same reason. If I see it, I’m much more likely to incorporate it into a meal creation, than not.
And fresh is so much better.
Do you remember when Justin Wilson’s sponsorship changed? His on air recipes changed from fresh onions and garlic to powdered and minced out of a jar? I do. It was sad. For his viewers and I’m certainly sure it was for him.
I keep my garlic in a blue splatter ceramic bowl right on the countertop. Yes, right there in front of my handy dandy Himalayan crystal salt. (I get mine at himalayancrystalsalt.com)

I read somewhere that the new color for kitchenware this fall was going to be a shade of blue. I’m already there!
