It’s pretty rare that I make a recipe from scratch. Most times I just browse pinterest until I’m drooling then pick the thing that is most drool-worthy that day.

Making pesto feels so summery to me. Those big basil plants, snitching a few toasted pine nuts that cost way too much but are way too tasty. I use basil mostly, although sometimes I throw in some parsley…
