Jeshannon,
Here's a Herbes de Provence recipe from "Le Garde Manger":
5 tbs. dried thyme
5 tbs. dried marjoram
3 tbs. dried savory
1 tbs. dried rosemary
1 tsp. dried sage
1 tsp. dried mint
1 tsp. fennel seeds

Combine all ingredients.

It also calls for 1 tsp. dried lavender flowers but you could leave it out.

Note: Crushed bay leaves are sometimes included in this blend.
