Basil in bloom

We have really enjoyed our herb garden this year.  Well, we do every year, but this year the queen of the garden was the basil.  We made many batches of pesto, margherita pizza, and caprese salad.  We still have some left.   We usually pinch off the flowers, but this time of year it’s better to let them go to seed in the hopes that we can get some seed for new plants next year.

This shot caught a sunbeam as the sun was dropping behind the trees.

Mmm, can’t you just smell the basil?
