It all started because I love to put peppermint to my lemonade (and my mothers loves the tea. The mints were an obvious addition also for lemonade. (We make a lot of lemonade because we own a huge lemon tree which is 30 years old at least and two stories high) we got Hierba santa for cooking traditional dishes. Then I got the chamolile because that is my favorite tea. Basil was my mothers idea because it supposedly deters fruit flies (it kinda does). We already had a rosemary my father got so I decided to add thyme and marjoram for cooking. Oregano was the obvious next. Now lemon balm for tea (because my boyfriend claims it helps him sleep). And if I add more is because I love caring for them and I'm kind of a collector and I'm quite fond of them. But yes, now that we have them I love to use them all for cooking and for their fragrance and beauty (rosemary is constantly flowering and I let if because the tiny flowers are very pretty).
We use a lot of cilantro and parsley for cooking and I always hated to buy big bunches in the supermarket to use just a bit and the rest were wasted so we added them.
Wonder what should I add next.
