Minthe

The herbs in our garden are thriving from all of this rain. I can't pick them fast enough. Phoenix and I have been sharing mint tea every morning, with Hannah sometimes joining us. I am having fun looking up the health benefits of mint. I do think that it has been helping when I get a little too sneezy. I tried adding some fresh mint and honey to plain yogurt today and it turned out really yummy.


This link has some great information on vitamins from and benefits of mint: www.helpwithcooking.com/herb-guide/mint.html

No wonder the mint is thriving right now, in greek mythology Minthe was a river nymph.

These pictures are of the spearmint.
