Temperatures rise enough during the day to tempt my herb garden to send out savory greenery, then they crash below freezing again each night. While waiting for my herbs to revive—and become my living spice cabinet once again—I enjoy the next best thing: the herbs preserved from the garden last season. They connect me to the garden and supply me with organic herbs until the garden is able to share its seasonal bounty.

A dozen sprigs of dried thyme flavor my vegetable soup (
see recipes) made with a mix of dehydrated vegetables from the garden. The scent of thyme coming from the simmering soup, intensifies my anticipation of the fragrant days ahead in the herb garden.
