What's that smell?

Brownie have you been in the herb garden again???

Chives, dill, marjoram

Tarragon
Rosemary
Thyme
Who me?? The herb garden??
What makes you think that?
I was just passing by
I can always tell when Brownie has been visiting in the herb garden.  He runs into the house smelling like a well marinated dog.
A lovely scent of rosemary and thyme fills the air as he by-passes me headed to his water bowl.
When he realises that I "know" he's been in the herb garden, and he can't possibly fool me, he draws near and gives me a generous lick, as if to say, "Don't be mad, I like how I smell after I walk among the herbs, and I know you do too."

  1. An animal in amongst the flowers and herbs is ok by me so long as they don't trample them. Unfortunately some dogs get a bit enthusiastic and forget.

  2. He doesn't trample....he's quite dainty with his footsteps in the herb garden.
    I only know he's been out there, if I catch his herbal scent when he gets back inside.

    1. That's right Gill, you've hit the nail on the head with that description.
