Fresh herbs

I miss my herb garden in the winter.  I miss being able to dash outside and snip a sprig or two to add to whatever I'm cooking.  So last weekend, I bought a pot each of basil and parsley to sit on my kitchen windowsill.  Now I can have fresh herbs to add whenever I want to use them.  It's not my herb garden but it's the next best thing.  Besides, I love the scent of basil ... it smells like summer to me.

It's been awhile since I've posted!  Almost a month to the day actually.  My Mom is home and doing much better.  Thank you for the emails so many of you wrote asking how she was doing.  I'm hoping to get back to a more regular blogging schedule soon but in the meantime, tell me what you've been up to!  Are you more than ready for spring?  Or are you already seeing signs of spring where you live ... lucky you if you are!
