Basil is definitely not one of my favorite herbs to use in cooking.
It has too strong a flavor for my taste-buds.
However, I like tiny bits of it sprinkled on fresh tomatoes and mozzarella cheese.
Add a few drops of olive oil and salt and those combined ingredients make a delicious salad.
A basil plant purchased at the supermarket for $1.79 now perks up a kitchen windowsill.

She's full and lovely.
Nearby is a tall, stately avocado, planted from a pit by my very own granddaughter!
Seeing green plants growing on the windowsill makes me happy.
It would be so nice if they would live through the winter.
WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO MAKE WITH BASIL?
