Pesto served three ways + 1

It’s pesto-time! Every year Ms Aitch winterizes the balcony and has a lot of basil to use. That’s why she creates different sorts of pesto, like basil/parmesan, sun-dried-tomato/parmesan, walnut/parmesan and thaibasil/peanut. The thaibasil-pesto is only for Ms Aitch because Mr El doesn’t like the taste of anise.
