This and That

 


 It wouldn't be Monday around here if it wasn't also Laundry day.  The day dawned overcast and cool but it promises to be sunny and warm later. 

My Basil, which I grew on the windowsill in the sunroom, grew much too big in spite of frequent trimmings. On Saturday I cut most of the leaves and Son#2 made Pesto. Later he brought me a slice of freshly baked bread spread with that pesto and it was so good!  The old Basil plants went into the compost.  I have a third pot of Basil ready for use now just in time for the ripening tomatoes!!

 

I don't think I posted about this chest of drawers that was marked Free beside the road. It's solid and in good condition so we brought it home. I was sure someone would need it and it turned out to be Son#3.
It's a good thing it didn't stay out in the weather for long or it would have gotten wet. We had a day of showers yesterday.


The rain meant a cooler day and I took advantage of the coolness to make an Impossible  Coconut Pie.
It was a good way to use up some milk that needed using.  Do you have a go-to recipe for when you find yourself in that situation?  

 
 
That's it for today. Thanks for visiting.
