Chef Tim Says....

I am not much of a gardener. It's not for want of trying, and it's partly because I don't have the time. I have friends who make it look so easy, but somehow I am not one of those who has been blessed with a green thumb.

The one place that I do have some success is in planting herbs. I am able to get them to grow for some reason, and for this I am very happy. There's no doubt that there's a time and a place for using dried herbs, but for so many recipes using fresh herbs makes the meal.
