Well, this weather we have been experiencing for at least 3 weeks now is REALLY getting me down. Today is the summer solstice, and there’s no end in sight to our gray, rainy skies :-(    So…. I am adding some sunshine to my life with a yummy salsa I’m about to make.  Think fresh mango, pineapple, red onion, bell peppers, cilantro, mint and lime. MMMMMM. To help with the mood-boosting, I’m going to splurge at the fish market too and pick up some wild salmon fillets to go with my salsa. Ooooh, feeling a bit sunnier already! :-)

I absolutely love summer foods, and I consider fresh basil to be one of the best things about summer! I just made my first batch of pesto for the season. Now that makes me happy :)   Yum.

Here’s my recipe for “3 B Pesto” = Best Basic Basil Pesto

2 cups fresh basil
1 cup shredded fresh Parmesan cheese
1/3 cup olive oil
1/4 cup walnuts
2 cloves fresh garlic
pinch of salt
Put all ingredients in blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Enjoy!!

Everyone raved about how good they were.
