Not cilantro or those that bolt early. My thyme and chives survived the winter. Last fall I picked rosemary, chives, and thyme and just froze them in ziplocks and used them all winter. Just as good as fresh. My basil I made into a pesto and used too.Lindienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36183952.post-58035336096184199732009-06-04T11:54:06.413-05:002009-06-04T11:54:06.413-05:00The site name is Musings Of A Housewife. Thanks f...The site name is Musings Of A Housewife. Thanks for asking, I should have put that in the post!<br /><br />So sorry to hear that Blue foundered. Been there too many times myself with Buddy. It sounds like you got it early enough thankfully. Did you have to soak his feet in cold water? That was the drill here and I had to do it three times per day for weeks. It was dreadful but he foundered really bad so had to be done.<br /><br />I finally got most of my veggies put in the ground this morning. The black flies about lugged me off but I got the task done. Now I am keeping my fingers crossed that we don't get a frost!Midlife Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03531655128417397650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36183952.post-42064742936577578422009-06-04T11:49:10.353-05:002009-06-04T11:49:10.353-05:00I hope you can get alot of those tomatoes done.

I cannot stand for long periods of time anymore either so I just sit at the kitchen table and do alot of things like peeling potatoes or cutting up things for salad etc. I gave up canning and gardens years ago but I do remember how good it was. Sorry your herbs didn't do well. If you can find them yet at a local garden place it's not too late to start them. Many will carry over to next year too. We have planted some in a container at the campground and I'll be interested to see if the chives and the oregano winter over out doors in a container. They are doing well right now and seem to love the container I put them in. <br />'On Ya'-maI'm mostly known as 'MA'https://www.blogger.com/profile/12107548726472541669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36183952.post-20733434762447858092009-06-04T11:24:18.014-05:002009-06-04T11:24:18.014-05:00I had my first canning project yesterday - Sunshin...I had my first canning project yesterday - Sunshine jam!!!<br /><br />I'm hoping this year I can work my way up to tomatoes. Although I did can beef stew last year. Tomatoes scare me a bit.Meadowlarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17208672418814503032noreply@blogger.com
