Pesto Anyone?

Shabbos was nice, friday night we had hawaiian chicken (YUMMM) and my mom made a chocolate decadence cake in honor of my Jewday.
Lori&Co came for lunch and stayed for most of the afternoon, we played a thrilling game of phase 10 (which my mother won) and ate lots of cake. After the game was over and we had been invaded by Frank and his groupies, Lori&Co decided that it was time to go and I tagged along with them (I seem to do that a lot..).
We played at the park for a bit and everyone made some new friends, Buzzy even got a new identity when a 5 year old from the neighborhood mistook him for a kid named Noam and tried to convince Lori that she was not his mother. The 5 year old then tried to convince "Noam" to go through the tunnel with him but Buzzy wasn't overly thrilled with the new identity that had been thrust upon him and much to the other kids dismay, he went down the red slide and into the arms of his amused yet slightly perturbed mother.
After the dramatic events at the park Buzzy was feeling rather tired so we headed back to their apartment where Buzzy got a nice bath and then went to bed continued to run around like a lunatic until he got tired enough to go to sleep. In the meantime, shabbos came to an end and Lori and I watched some more Gilmore Girls.

A couple of weeks ago my mother cut off a rather large hunk from our basil plant, we didn't really know what to do with it so we stuck it in a container with some water and then sort of left it alone to do its own thing.

Yes, that is all one piece...

The basil cuttings thrived in their little plastic jail and grew some long roots.

The root of our problems

We didn't want to throw them out so we got some soil and planted them.

So many basils!!!

More basil!!! :O 

The one on the left in the green planter is going to Lori and another is for Freddie but the others are currently unspoken for.
If you've ever longed to have your very own basil plant, here's your chance!!
We seem to have plenty to go around... :P
