Default An embarrassment of herbs

Went to my favorite produce store the other day, and came out with one
of their "5 lb or $1.49" specials. Usually I go for the apple bag,
which nets me 2 or 3 quarts of applesauce, but this time, there was
that bag of oranges and herbs. Mineolas, navels, one blood orange,
and 7 bunches of herbs. Two were watercress, I think, which had to be
used immediately. What was left over was mush the next day, but it
made a nice addition to the salads that night.

Now, however, I have 3 large bunches of mint, a bundle of rosemary,
and a bundle of sage. The sage and rosemary I think I'll dry, but the
mint I'd like to do something with. It's not really the season for
tabouli, my favorite mint use, and there's too much for tea.

What would you do with roughly 3 pints of spearmint sprigs?
