Life’s Little Pleasures!!


This is just one more thing that makes me so happy.
My little herb garden on my patio.
I have tried to grow herbs other times in my life but never had success,
especially in the summer.
Now I know it is easy!!
That is if you have a good source of water.
Since I installed my little drip system on my patio
growing has become so much easier and the herbs have become my favorite.
On Thanksgiving I was able to just go out and pick some for my stuffing
and today I had fresh sage, rosemary and thyme for my pork roast gray.
The best part is at Thanksgiving there was no running around to every grocery store in town
to get the herbs at the last minute…just to fine out everyone was OUT of fresh sage.
This is what I have growing right now,
lemon thyme, common thyme, sage, rosemary, curly leaf parsley, Italian parsley and sweet basil.
I planted these the first of November and am curious to see how they grow year around.
