Thyme is another good option. We use it for ground cover (and it's good at taking over). In the 4x16' herb box, we planted a purple-flowering kind in the front corner and it is spilling over the sides nicely.

We also dry our own herbs, sometimes in the stacking tray dehydrator and sometimes by hanging them from the chandelier (I call that "Jumanji&quot . Right now there's a mess of lavender hanging off of it. We also run yarn under the doorway frames (we're all fairly short) to hang herbs. A binder clip works great for this purpose. There's catnip between the kitchen and living room. That's very convenient for reaching up to pinch off a bud or two to get the cats stoned.
