Spearmint status: 10-12-2004

The plant is doing fine. I think I'm going to move it next year to a place on our porch that's not in direct sunlight for most of the day. Seems as though the plant and soil dry out too fast when I do that. If I can clean enough of the stuff in the study out, I'll put the plant in there.

I snipped some of the branches off and dried the leaves. I think I have enough spearmint for a couple of cups of tea now. Next year, I'll be more aggressive about clipping and drying.

Other than tea, I can't think of any good uses for mint. We might add another plant next year that's more useful to us. Probably basil.

Mojitos.

Salad: spearmint leaves as the bulk green component (you'll need more than one plant), some coriander, one finely sliced onion, crushed peanuts, chicken bits (optional), some fish sauce. Yum.
