Quote of the Day “Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don’t wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it’s at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.” ~ Earl Nightingale

I love growing my own herbs, and not just because they smell lovely! They don’t require a ton of space {hence the indoor growing thing!}, they are perfect for beginners because they are typically so forgiving, and they have all sorts of culinary and medicinal users. Best of all, besides a little sun {say on an indoor window ledge} and water, you basically have to do nothing for them to thrive. Sounds like my kind of plant.
Basil: This is an herb garden must-have in my book. I use basil more than any other herb I grow. Homemade pesto anyone? Yum!
Parsley: Fresh parsley is so abundant in the stores that I kind of feel silly growing it. But the reason I do is because there are so many dishes that call for it and I love substituting fresh parsley in recipes during the off season when I normally would have had to use dried.
Rosemary: I like to grow rosemary from seed. It’s a super forgiving plant, so even if you grow it from seed and it’s thriving indoors and then you decide to transplant it outside and are pretty sure you’ve completely killed it, it’ll spring back to life and start thriving again. Not that I would know that from experience or anything! Ha! I’ve even made
Sage: I think the texture of sage is so fun; nice and fuzzy like lambs ear! In my opinion, sage is a complete must for Thanksgiving stuffing and you can call me odd, but Thanksgiving dinner is pretty much the sole reason I grow it!
Thyme: I’m not sure what the going rate for a container of thyme is these days, but I have a feeling a packet of seeds is a whole lot less. While I normally dehydrate it to use later this winter in soups and savory dishes, it can easily be grown all year long indoors!
Cilantro: From what I’ve been told, there are two camps: those who love cilantro and those who think it tastes like soap {which I guess has something to do with
Dill: What’s better than making your own homemade pickles? Growing the dill to make your own homemade pickles. Fresh dill is so yummy and really complements a lot of savory dishes well.
Mint: I have learned to plant mint only in pots because it spreads like a weed. So growing it indoors is easy peasy, but beware that it’ll produce like crazy, probably more than any other herb you grow!
Oregano: Like mint, you pretty much can’t kill oregano. It thrives anywhere {including the windowsill in your kitchen garden!}! And grows like crazy. Perfect for that homemade spaghetti sauce!

Quote of the Day “Whatever we are waiting for – peace of mind, contentment, grace, the inner awareness of simple abundance – it will surely come to us, but only when we are ready to receive it with an open and grateful heart.” ~ Sarah Ban Breathnach
