I had a great birthday weekend from start to finish. I was determined to squeeze in as much relaxation as I could, and one of the things I did was plant the herbs my mom bought me for my birthday. Take a look at this sweet garden:

In order, back row first, from left to right: Lavender, sage, basil, thyme, coriander, oregano, lemon mint, parsley, ginger mint, pineapple mint, spearmint, and chocolate mint.

I’m really excited about the chocolate mint, it smells exactly like a Mint Aero Bar and I can’t wait to see how it tastes as a tea. Yum!
