The very good news is that Rachel is fine, which I'm sure everyone is relieved to hear. Apparently we had our wires crossed somehow on the date, and she has been away on a business trip and wasn't checking her personal e-mail so she didn't see all the entries coming in. Rachel will be working on the Recap and posting it as she adds entries over the next few days.
My apologies to anyone who saw this and already sent the links to Ilva, and now will have to change them back. Hopefully that won't be too many people! And thanks again to Ilva for so generously offering to help out.
I guess the short answer is that I don't know why Rachel of Rachel's Bite hasn't posted the Recap for Weekend Herb Blogging #87. Without going into a lot of details, I'll just say that when the Recap didn't get posted I tried to contact her without success. I also noticed her e-mail address is now different than the one she used when we comfirmed the date for her to host.
Ilva says she doesn't care about the links, but I would greatly appreciate it if people would change their post so it links to Lucullian Delights, and then send her the link at i_beretta AT yahoo DOT it. It would probably help her if people make sure to include the name of their blog and the recipe name or post title too.
We should probably give people a few days to find this and get their links sent to Ilva, but I'm thinking that by Friday, about the time I'll be going to San Francisco, you should go and visit Ilva again to see what kind of herbs, plants, veggies, and flowers people were writing about last week.
(I hope this does not create confusion for Astrid from Paulchen's Food Blog, who is the host for June 18-24. For new entries during that time, send them to her at foodblog AT paulchens DOT org.
Thanks to everyone for being so understanding!

You and Ilva are two peas in a pod . . . totally gracious!
Kalyn, thanks so much for the efforts! And Ilva is truly a great person! :)
Kayln and all - so sorry for the delay. I posted a "coming soon" post and will be updating throughout the day tomorrow. Should be complete by the end of the day tomorrow, 6/20.
Tanna, you're so sweet, and pretty gracious yourself. Gracious is something I haven't always been in my life, but it's something I've always aspired to be. I hope I'm learning from friends like you and Ilva how to do it!
Anh, you're right Ilva is great, and I'm so glad it worked out.
Rachel, I'm just so glad you're ok. I was imagining that something awful had happened to you, and I'm so relieved to know I was just being a worry-wart. I've contacted the few people who I know saw this or contacted me; hope I didn't miss too many others. My apologies to anyone if they saw this and changed their links before I heard from Rachel. And thanks again to the wonderful Ilva.
Kalyn (and Ilva!), thanks for the effort to track down the answer on this -- very helpful! I was just coming by to get Ilva's address to update my post, but I'm glad I don't have to do it...I'll just leave it as it is (and maybe add an update so my readers know the deal).
Have a wonderful, wonderful trip to SF -- I'm so jealous!
Kalyn, thanks for the note on my blog.
Glad to see things have worked out =). But this little incident really show how much WHB means to a lot of us! :D
Kalyn, glad to hear that Rachel is fine, and things have worked out fine :). And enjoy your trip!
Genie, I plan on having so much fun. See you in Chicago.
Anh, thanks.
Angie, I'm also very glad she's ok and that nothing was wrong.
