Trimmed a Little Bit of Basil

Mrs H needed 3 cups of basil for a batch of pesto, so off I went with a pair of scissors. I've got 2 large containers with 3 plants each, and they needed to be pruned.....so after their haircut, this is what I got.  8)

you just can't beat fresh homegrown herbs.  And they're so easy to grow.  That pesto is going to be special!
