Its a fresh new day

One of the reasons why I love my man...


Basil anyone?

Usually I feel awful in the mornings...this wasn't always the case however ask my siblings or my college roommates...I was an early riser eager to face the new day. Yesterday was reminiscent of my earlier days as for the first time in months the humidity had vanished and with it all my cares. Ok not all my cares but at least I felt a renewed strength to get things done that had been lingering... no calling out to me for weeks. First on the list...my basil patch. I had made pesto earlier on in the season but I had no idea my basil was going to mass produce itself and as I usually cringe at waste I decided it was high time I attend to it. So last night as we talked over the days happenings my husband and I picked, washed, and blended two huge bags of basil leaves. IF perchance you are reading this blog and are local PLEASE do yourself and me a favor and come and take some of this wonderful herb for your culinary pleasures. I would feel so much better about myself if I used it up and didn't send it all to the compost heap.
