Great Saturday

It's a great Saturday. Don't you agree? I mean, first of all, there have been some great tennis matches. Currently rooting for Novak Djokovic because I'd like to see him beat Roger Federer. I suppose it doesn't matter much because Rafael Nadal is ready to win the whole tournament. That's just the way it has to be. I'm sad the U.S. Open is coming to an end though. The good news is that there will be plenty of college football and NFL to keep me occupied. We've already discussed that....moving on...

Let's go WWU Vikings! No? Oh...oops

Want to know the best-o pesto recipe? Okay fine. I'll tell you. Step by step, picture by picture. You're gonna love the way it looks (and tastes). The Men's Warehouse guy guarantees it. 

Looking good team. 

Before we go any further, you should be warned that pine nuts are pricey. You'll pay $8.40 for 0.40 lbs. You need to get over this now because it's worth it. Don't doubt. 

The belle of the ball. The star of the show. The head honcho. Is that enough?

Grab a food processor and put in 1 Tbsp of garlic (4 cloves). All of those pine nuts (1 cup). 2 cups of the finest smelling, tasting basil you can find. 

Start processing!

Add 1 cup of extra virgin olive oil. 

So far so good. 

Grind up some black pepper. Just as much as you'd like. Toss in some cheese! 1 cup Parmesan and 1/4 cup of Romano. 

Oh hey, we're done! How easy was that? 

The most important part...

Taste test! This step must be included since it's the most fun important.

If you were wondering what to make for dinner...errr...you're welcome. 

I'm off to enjoy the rest of my Saturday! Please do the same. 

              Best-o,
