I love all the basil's. I find them versatile, and I love putting them in salads, sandwiches, you name it, not just Italian. I am crazy about lemon basil and thai basil, just great in Italian and everything, don't let an Asian name fool you into thinking it's limited to Asian. lol. 
I love oregano. I have both cuban and greek. Again, because of the tastes.
I am totally in love with lemon things. Lemon verbena is one of my faves. I love lemon thyme, and lemon balm and lemon grass. also. I also love mexican marigold mint, or it's also called american tarragon. I also use both chives, garlic and onion. I love all the mints, I use chocolate and peppermint the most, but I have spearmint this year too. I find mint in things not usually traditional for mint is most tasty. I love that celery taste that looks like parsley I was talking about in another post. I use pineapple sage with my lemon things, it's a nice compliment to other herbs as well as food.
I love all of them, I use them all, all the time. Frankly, you asked almost an impossible question. I'll go out and just snip herbs for spaghetti that most people would not think of for it, simply because I have them and they work great! Heck, I even put oregano leaves and basil leaves and other things on my Subway sandwich if I bring it home.

Mint is my main one, I have a variety of different types. I have sage and rosemary, some basil, just to name a few. The mint is a spreader so I plant it in spots that it can spread to its hearts content!

Mint and basil. I plan to get a few mint and basil plants once I move, I don't do that here because then I'd be temped to go back gardening, but I know I just can't go back to that even if I really want to. Will definitely keep those two nearby in the kitchen in the future tho. Those two are great aids!

I love many herbs, because they're easy to grow, they smell beautifully and they look really decorative on a windowsill in my kitchen My current favorite is mint, because its taste is very refreshing. I often drink mint tea during summer.
I also like basil, thyme and lemon balm.

I love growing basil, oregano and rosemary because I use those herbs in my spaghetti sauce. I also have mint growing inside and in a plant container outside. I love how it smells and I put it in my tea. I also have some parsley growing because I use it when I make homemade dog treats for my dogs. I also have a nasturnium growing on my kitchen windowsill. I know you can eat the flowers but I just have it because I like the bright colors of the flowers.
