Good mornong 1012

 I’ve cut back my lemongrass and am letting it dry.

Am I going to make tea with it? No, no! I’ll just let it dry indoors for a while, enjoy its fragrance, and then probably throw it away.

In the past, it never survived the winter in my garden because it was too cold here. But in recent years, it has managed to survive the winter. I wonder if it will make it through this winter, too.

While I was cutting it back, one of my neighbors happened to walk by and asked, “What’s that?”

I said, “Doesn’t it smell nice?” She seemed satisfied with that answer. Then I explained, “You can dry it indoors for a while and enjoy the fragrance.” She liked the idea and took some home with her.

The photo shows what was left. It’s just the right amount for me!
