Victor, I like it in some of my recipes but I have to use with caution because my husband is so picky. Thanks for the visit. Sara

Tom, I think for the 21 days that I was the sickest I did not go outside. I think for the most of two weeks I was confined to my bedroom and bathroom. I have gone outside a few times in the last week. It was nice and cool out the last couple of morning because we have lower humidity. Thanks for your visit to my page. Sara

Sad they are dying due to lack of water. But there will be other seasons! Great imagery, Sara.

Vijay, The oregano in my herb garden is faring okay. I think it will survive this year to make it through the winter. The little that I brought into the house and put in water is what died while I was sick and could not add any water to it. Thanks for dropping by. Sara

Eve, Just before I got sick, I went out to the herb garden and got some basil leaves and some oregano to use in something I was cooking. I got too much oregano and put the leftover in some water on the window sill. I got sick maybe the next day or the next. I was sick 21 days and the water was all used up in the glass holding the oregano. I know you have heard the expression green with envy or when talking about a person being nauseated being green around the gills. Well, put it all together. LOL..Thanks for the visit. Sara
