Re: (...)
Discovered yesterday that the Truck Farmers' (Jack and Florence) main crops this year are going to be cilantro and basil in the fields and the other herbs in the greenhouses. I think I'm going to be making lots of cilantro pesto and basil pesto. Florence told me to feel free to graze through the greenhouses...Oh Boy! You better believe I'm going to make y'all suffer with all the "stuff" I get to browse through

I searched in my MasterCook just for curiousity and got 553 hits!!! Can you tell I love cilantro? One combination I especially like is cilantro, basil and mint together in a dish.

Going through the greenhouses sounds like a vacation to me! That has to be so much fun.

I had forgotten about that one Jean. Remember the Mango Chutney? I gave my friend John my last pint jar of that a couple of months ago.

Lucky you! Enjoy, enjoy.
Jean, that chutney recipe sounds good, even better that I have the ingredients on hand. Thanks!
