 I have used both together, and I find the brightness of the mint contrasts
and complements the earthiness of the sage, making for a most delightful
combination. It's much like the Asian sweet and sour. It does take a bit of
getting used to, as all unusual, strong flavors do, so I'd suggest backing the
proportions down a bit, until you decide whether you want one to predominate,
and whether or not you like the combo. Don't ask ME for the food-to-spice
proportions, I'm one of those misguided folks who eats garlic as a vegetable,
and I don't want to burn you out before you get started ;-)

Phlip, 
who's breathing a sigh of relief at responding to a simple spicing question!
