Herby

Planted a pot of herbs this weekend. Cilantro, basil, fennel, thyme, chives. The best part of the planting is the way they make your hands smell afterwards.

Side note: isn't it maddening when people pronounce the h in front of herb? Or worse, some mid-westerners turn h's into y's. Like, the weather in Iowa is so yumid. But that is rather irrelevant because I've never heard anyone say yerb. Maybe I'll start.
