Tip of the Day~~April 21, 2010 (great)

[wit-nit]

Why don't you just give Herb a towel to dry off. Wouldn't that be easier.

Well at least if you get caught in the “fast” lane of traffic and a police officer pulls you over, you can tell him that you’re trying to dry your herbs quickly because of an appointment later in the day and can’t spend so much time just sitting in the driveway with the windows up.

What's more, your car will smell great.

Hmmm... The last time I put 2 Herbs in my car to dry them out, and closed the doors and windows, I didn't think they liked it too much because it was about 110 degrees outside in July in Phoenix.... But it's a dry heat!

Our sun is so hot I think it may burn the herbs, however it is a great tip. I like it very much thank u Normie

[Magnum Mike]

I wonder if there are any herbs that have the new car smell?
