Can you believe it!? All those days of tending to those basil vigilantly and they produced flowers right out from under my nose! How am I suppose to turn them into basil oil if the basil can't be used because it was flowering! I'm so made I could just.... BAH! My fury will be unleashed!
Oh and for the record, those gorgeous sunflowers, despite my best effort, wouldn't pollinate and thus have come to the end of their road. The insides have dried up and the pretty yellow petals didn't last too long after. But they were beautiful while they lasted and I will cherish them just like I did the teddy bear sunflowers even after death. The savories didn't make it either and the lack of sun from the oncoming fall days and winter on the verge has sent them into a downward spiral. The baby basils are the only ones left of the babies. The savory didn't survive and nor did the baby sunflowers, but perhaps ts for the best. I don't want to have to force them into thinking they aren't in the warmth and happiness where they belong.
Oh well, if anyone has any basil oil recipes, lemme know!
