O is for Oregano

I grow it.



I dry it.



I grind it.




And I store it.





And then I make lots of spaghetti sauce with it. I think it's my favorite herb.

That's brilliant - I've not seen a dryer like that before, what a great idea!

Amazing.
I'm a cave person when it comes to herbs. I just buy it at the store...

I second the others and add that I love your mortar and pestle!

We eat tons of it in this house. In fact, it's a catastrophe if we are out of it! I think it goes great on everything. Well, just about. My favorite thing to put oregano on is pizza. Yay! I am also into essential oils, and use really pure and therapeutic quality brand. Whenever I feel a cold or stomach thing coming on. I dose with olive oil and a few drops of oregano. Works like a charm every time.

Have a great day! .......Mardi
