CSA day, which means extra work for me.
So, of course, I decided it was a good time to make pesto.
The 3 big basil plants have flowers. I cut the top off one per a suggestion online to cut off half a basil plant once it flowered to encourage more leaves.
The leaves were in good shape for pesto, and I put the flowers in two arrangements, one with Sunflowers from the Farm.
Watered the corner garden. Divvied up the CSA share and managed to get all of our produce in the frig.
Ron brought carrots, green peppers and a Yerba Mate to Robert.
He came back with a 1/4 cup package of pine nuts. He ground up the basil (2 cups), pine nuts, 3 gloves of garlic and 1/2 cup of olive oil.
Superb!
Can’t wait until tomorrow, when it’ll be even better.
Put an invoice together for Jim with dates, times, hours and tasks. Two months for RovingGM.
Sauteed carrots, onion, tomatoes, red and green peppers and zucchini. Floated 4 beaten eggs on top, covered and cooked for about 3-4 minutes. Next time, really need seasoning; it was good, but bland.
Turns out, the insignia for the 10th Mountain Division at Fort Drum looks a lot like Phyllis’ “X”s!
