YUM Any one who walked into my house right now would think I am busy cooking up a storm, but I am not. I have been slowly working on getting the gardens cleaned up and bedded down for the winter. Today I cut a bunch of rosemary, some sage, the parsley, and some thyme. Yeah, I dug out some old Simon and Garfunkel to listen to as I went about drying these herbs. I don't use a whole lot of sage, but it does make an attractive plant in the herb garden. I tend to use it mostly to garnish a platter--like for the roast chicken I served the other day. I prefer rosemary and parsley when fresh, but it is nice to have a bit on hand in the spice drawer just in case. You never know when a spice emergency will occur. Now, thyme is my favorite. I have two huge clumps of it and I use it all the time...er, a lot. I filled a colander with cut thyme, washed it and started picking through it to spread sprigs on paper towels before drying it ...
