One of my favorite things about summer is having large pots of fresh herbs {and a garden full of mint} growing in my backyard.  I love to add a handful of fresh herbs to a dinner recipe or flavor a pitcher of iced tea with something sweet or savory.  I also love the idea of using fresh herbs for something besides cooking so I’ve gathered up 15 ways to use herbs.  I hope these ideas will inspire you as much as they’ve inspired me!

    Do you know where – in Southern Ontario – I can get Fennugreek seeds ??
    I love the smell of it, but cannot find it anywhere .. I have been searching for about 3 years now.

    Would appreciate
    Helen
