Pesto Part II

This was posted last summer:


August 2010:  Basil. Ahhh. We have 18 plants of it on our balcony with just a little room left for two pots of Rosemary, our BBQ grill, a square table and two chairs. Basil gave me permission to purchase a new Cuisinart food processor so I could make Pesto. Two double batches so far. Some to a party over homemade noodles, some spread on farmer's market tomatoes with oil and Balsamic, some in the freezer. $62.50 per batch and counting;-D


August 2011:  Eighteen plants again this year. As of today, down to $41.66 per batch and counting:•)
