Fresh Herb Basket
I have really enjoyed making projects from this book to gain more knowledge and practice using my herbs. Do you have herbs you use from your garden?

Drying Roses for Display
They make a nice addition to my tea tray. I think I need a bigger bouquet. I might still have time to harvest some before winter.

Warm Autumn Spice Mixes
I cook from scratch and usually don't need a baking spice mix, but when I do, I hate having to stop and look them up. So I am posting them all here in a handy reference and also posting them at the Victory Cottage Cookbook for a baking reference. I love baking in the fall, and this spice recipe list is one of the reasons it is so cozy, warm, and wonderful!
3 tablespoons cinnamon
2 teaspoons ginger
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon allspice
Place all ingredients in a glass jar with a tight seal. Shake to combine. Store in a cabinet for up to two years. (Makes almost 1/4 cup.)
