New Cooking Adventure

With going to the market every Sunday and there being fresh basil what a good idea then to try making fresh homemade pesto!!! This has been the adventure for the past few weeks… attempting to perfect pesto.

Seeing as how we did not have pine nuts.. we substituted with baked peanuts. The first time around, we all liked it. I must say, I love having cooking parties be my idea.. somehow I never end up doing any of the cooking... or... is that a sign??

The second and third time I made the pesto on my own…. Not so much… I did something wrong… it wasn’t exactly delicious.

My fourth time making it… turned out amazing…I followed a recipe that time… amazing how that can change it all.

SO now when I come home I can make fresh pesto for all of you!! WOO HOOO!!!!
