Arugula and Mint

That wispy thing, behind the big happy mystery-plant's leaves, is what's left of the bolted Arugula.  I'm letting it go to seed.  The seeds are in long thin pods; I imagine that when they are ripe the pods will burst open.  Hopefully I'll be lucky enough to be in the garden on the day the seeds are ripe, but before they fall into the soil to be lost forever.  I'd like to try Arugula again someday.

Here's my thriving Mint plant:
I made Mint Tea with local honey last night for dessert.  It was tasty!  And apparently if you suffer from acid reflux, mint tea is better than Zantac.
