Silvia gave us the challenge to depict something from our garden for today's F4A. We do have flowers...and you know how I LOVE to color flowers, but I thought I would do my herb garden. I love to cook with fresh herbs and that is a delight of summer. This old SU stamp is pretty much how my herb garden looks...it is all in pots! We have a very shady yard and the only place that gets enough sun is the turn-around of our back drive. So my herbs sit in pots to soak up the sun and flourish.

Herbs were my first thought today, but I don't have even one single herb stamp. We're having a simple risotto tonight to finish off one lot of basil as the next one is nearly ready for cropping. I love this card, both the image and the framing. I can almost smell those herbs - but it's cilantro, parsley and mint I never have enough of, plenty of thyme .
