At least you have some in the garden, even if it is dormant and under
the snow I planted tarragon last year, so I hope it comes around
again this spring in the next few weeks or so. I made sure to harvest
the tarragon last fall before the season turned too cold. Alas, I've
barely used any of the tarragon I harvested and dried, which came to two
nearly-full 20-oz plastic cups. Perhaps it's just me, but I find the
fresh tarragon reminds me of licorice!
