grow herbs

Okay, I really don’t cook much but herbs are great in salads and dips and I DO cook in the microwave sometimes (I know, that’s nuking). I truly enjoyed my little herb garden. I have frozen some herbs to be used later and plan to dry some also. It really has been fun even if I did kill a couple of plants.

Although I live alone and rarely cook just for myself I wanted to grow herbs. It seemed silly and a waste of time until a friend told me it wasn’t, because I enjoy my little garden and that’s the most important thing. I have dill, chives, basil, parsley, lemon balm, thyme, cilantro, rosemary and lavender. At first they weren’t getting enough water because they are in pots but now they seem to be thriving. I have used a few in cooking but if I were to never use them I have gained great enjoyment from my little garden.
