Basil Lover

I'm a basil lover.  I love fresh basil in my summer recipes.  True confession--sometimes I purposely walk by my basil, rubbing the leaves to release the fragrance, especially the vanilla scented Blue Globe (bottom right corner of above photo/Purple Ruffles in photo below).  No, I'm not crazy (or at least I don't think I am--maybe that's not such a good sign).  For me, basil signals summer---the delicious smells and fresh tastes and delightful sights.

  2. True! And then there's the therapy of being in the garden, too. I miss gardening weather now that it's December.
