Herbage Update

I would like the following photographs to prove that I have not killed anything yet.



mint



dill, chives, basil



lavender



thyme and rosemary (and a succulent that originally looked like The Hulk's knuckles coming out of the soil but now looks like it has been munched on by a squirrel)


Times became desperate with the basil because we have a squirrel problem. Apparently squirrels like basil and are not always scared off by a water gun. Seriously, Ellis (short for LS, short for Little Shit) seems to be a masochist, or maybe he is just trying to cool off. This little creature is relentless, so we currently have the basil weighted down with pebbles and it is finally starting to grow because it doesn't get uprooted every 3 hours.

Any good recipes using herbs for food or cocktails are welcome!
