Summer Wane

Basil from my garden...

...becomes pesto for my family!


The bounty of harvest continues.

Whole, slow food.

Boy am I going to miss summer!

Woo-hoo on the pesto! Basil is such a beautiful plant, isn't it?

I'm not going to miss summer however. But, don't remind me I said that in January, eh?

Thanks, WC! Basil sure is a beautiful plant.

I won't remind you, I promise.

The hot is not fun, I have to admit but it's cooler now. I'm kinda sad to see the end of the living season, to watch all these things I've nurtured for months begin to die away or go to sleep. Such is the nature of seasons, though.

And I do love fall. I will be singing its praises soon enough, I'm sure!

How beautiful and luscious. Everything is done for here. Except for hot peppers. Now I am wishing I had made pesto and frozen it.
