These are my newest herb plants: Thyme & Marjoram. They are loving the summer sunshine and I've been reeeeally wanting to use the Thyme for something. I'll be honest, I have no idea what Marjoram tastes like and am a bit daunted by it; I think I'll save it until I'm at least a week in to my posts. I was reading that it is actually closely related to Oregano and it is always what is in the Herbes de Provence dried mix I always use in casseroles. So I might build up a good idea for a good beef casserole and make my own fresh herb mix with marjoram.
But for now, tired after a *long* day at work, all I could muster was a salad to go with dinner. And while I was thinking this was pretty pathetic being only my second post when I tasted it I was shocked at how delicious it was. My photos don't do it justice. It was really simple to make: Romaine lettuce, chopped cucumber, parma ham, a handful of fresh Thyme chopped up, rapeseed oil and a bit of salt & pepper. It is sooo good!
