This weeks smile comes in the form of these basil plants. I have grown them from seed and I'm jolly chuffed!! They taste good too, I had a few leaves with my tomato soup yesterday lunchtime.
Oh, I can smell them from here. I grew some from seeds too. I had bought them at Lidls and didn't think they's do. But they did! They have now gone to seed and i have 'harvested' the lot and chopped them up and put them in ice cube trays and froze them. That way i have little cubes to use in dishes. Have a good weekend, Lisca#11
