Fresh basil for a salad. Soon Dwight will process all the basil into a pesto which we will then freeze.
Multicultural Ingredients
Enjoyed the fruits of my Tuesday multicultural walk. For dinner: sautéed Chinese broccoli with risotto (bitter versus sweet), Japanese Kit-Kats for dessert. For lunch: Norwegian-style lefse, butter, no sugar, with stinky cheeses.

Time to Move on a Favorite Rug
Rolled out a rug we both love and took photographs. Rolled it back up, ready to go to its next home. It wasn’t making anybody happy rolled up in our storage cage.

Dwight produced a satisfying rice bowl for dinner, using whatever we had to hand.
