I beg your pardon, I like my lovely little herb garden

A couple of weeks ago my husband and I planted our herb “garden.”
   It's really herbs planted in individual pots and placed in our backyard.
   One of my favorite things to do in the summer is to go outside in bare feet in the grass and raid our beautiful garden, picking sprigs of herbs to use in summer dishes.
   This year we planted basil, oregano, tarragon, chives, rosemary, thyme, sage, flat-leaf parsley and mint.
   We find ourselves using these fresh herbs in dishes all summer long. (In cold months, we buy our herbs from the supermarket.)
   Here are some summertime dishes that put the fresh herbs we plant to marvellous use:
