It's been a while since I did a dinner post. It's good to be grateful for the little things, isn't it? Check this out! Homemade sparkling grape juice! I boiled up grapes from our grapevine, stirred in some sugar, then added half and half fizzy drink.
I also made some homemade basil pesto from the profusion of basil in our garden. Yay for planting basil in our fertile garden area instead of the dry herb garden. Worked a treat!
Recipe here.A wee bit salty. There's so much cheese it doesn't need salt... so I'll know for next time. I also used walnuts instead of pine nuts. I think I'll use pine nuts next time.
Here's our cat, Clyde. Missed all the cute poses, but there he is anyway. He's a bit of a wild one. Not too domesticated. Always coming home from the wars.
And here's us tonight at dinner. That's the most natural pose I could get from Catherine.
And me at the bach again today. The life huh?
