I thought I would switch up today’s post a bit and share a little bit of personal food information with everyone. I am going to share with you my favorite herbs and spices that I use on a regular basis. What I would like to see from everyone that reads this post is that they add a comment and inside the comment include their top 10 herbs and spices. After a couple of weeks I will compile a list of the most commonly used herbs and spices and do a follow up post. I think it will be fun to see and read everyone’s different tastes.
I look forward to hearing everyone’s responses of favorites. Have a great Friday!!
