November has been mild. I have been pretty relaxed about moving plants in because we haven't had to worry about frost yet. That said, I moved the banana into the garage and brought in my two peppers that I managed to save. They look pretty bad but a little tlc and water should help them last over the winter in the basement. We got a dehydrator from my parents and had great success drying peppers so I decided to cut and dry all the herbs in my herb bed.
I dried marjoram, oregano, chives, basil and parsley. I didn't have near enough oregano and I must say that was my favorite. I had a bumper crop of parsley and my beautiful and useful daughter Annie cut a second crop of parsley for me this weekend and we dried it overnight.

Yes, my grandaughter, Annie is beautiful, useful and talented. She played the xylophone wonderfully in the Christmas Concert at school.
I should have brought my basil plant in from outside. I think it is too cold for it now. The fresh basil was wonderful in the summer.
Love,
Mom
