About a week ago came a call for overnight frost. Time to rescue the remaining herbs and tomatoes shivering on the deck.
I washed and separated them. And then got them to pose for the blog:
I grouped some for keeping fresh in the fridge...parsley, basil and oregano...ready for a nice pasta dish.
And hung the rest on the line to dry....mint, rosemary and lemon thyme....which will warm up some hearty meals through the coming fall.
I do realize that I posted about gardening at the beginning of the season and again about gardening at the end of the season, with nothing in between and no recipes at all.
I guess we all have our seasons. I hope to get back to cooking up a storm and blogging up the web again real soon :)
i like your "someday" herbs, and funny how you got them to pose for the blog. looks great! we had the same frost warning and i thought of doing the same thing... but the herbs are still out there, and we even have a couple of hot peppers hanging around. it has been so mild.
ReplyDeleteNice - what a pretty little harvest you have there :)
