Friday is "fix it" day!

Since Maggie and I usually have Friday afternoons free, I have deemed them Friday fix-it day! I plan on each week having Maggie help me fix something special in the kitchen. Last week was our first week and we made...pesto!! We had so much fun and it turned out delicious, so much better than manufactured, in a jar pesto. Maggie was thrilled with the whole process from picking the basil to using the food processor! We used the Barefoot Contessa's recipe for pesto, which can be found here.
I think Ina Garten would approve!!
