Always Cook with Herbs

Just like to say, I am very proud of my herb garden.

I bought some herbs in pots from the local supermarket, dug them into the garden, covered them with clear plastic boxes, and they all seam to grow ! Under one box I have planted loads of baby carrots .

Salads taste great with Coriander, Chives, Parsley.
