[Sca-cooks] pesto help!

[Pixel, Goddess and Queen]

Sounds like what we had going last year--the basil was threatening to eat
the sage, which, considering the sage has been known to eat whole rabbits,
was pretty impressive.

I just chop mine up with the thingy that came with my handblender
(basically a teeny little food processor/blender) with olive oil, and pop
it in the freezer. If I want to make pesto out of it later then I can mix
the other pesto-y ingredients in then, and if I want to use the basil in
non-pesto applications it's much easier.
