My wife grows so much basil that by the end of the summer, I’ve had enough.

Too bad for me because she makes batches of pesto then pours it into ice trays to freeze. Then she puts the cubes in a plastic freezer container and uses a cube or two through the off-season.

It’s easy to grow, too. Enjoy!

Pesto is so easy and there are so many ways to change it up, it's best to just whip it up when needed ... marble falls Jun 29 #1

Yes, it easy to make, but somehow, I never get around to making it. I made a point of it yesterday. NNadir Jun 29 #2
