We've Sprouted!


It has been about 2 months since my last post about our herb garden. Over the last month we moved the plants out to the balcony to get lots of sunlight and the odd rain shower and since then they have grown significantly.

We have been cutting off some of the dill to put in our eggs (each day for Steve and just on the weekends of me); and just last night we pulled off lot of basil and made our own pesto!

Steve and I are heading to California for about two weeks for vacation, but when we come back we are looking forward to cutting off some of the chives and thyme and using that in recipes as well.

We're so pleased with the results of our first herb garden and are looking forward to growing more herbs next year too.

Bon apetit & enjoy!
