Basil left yesterday for a job down in South Georgia. He'll be gone for a month or so, only coming home on weekends. Beckett and I are doing pretty good, so far. But if I'm expected to perform these kinds of antics, I'm in big trouble.

 

Look how Basil makes that look so effortless! This was the last swing before Basil got in the car and left for the week.

I love basil. ButI never would have suspected that hummingbirds would love basil. I've seen them feeding at the tiny white blossoms several times today. Who would have thunk it?

Cardinal Basil Hume OSB, OM. Archbishop of Westminster (1976-1999) – an inspirational church leader.

 

A statue of Cardinal Hume (2002) in his Benedictine monk’s habit wearing a cardinal’s skull cap and the cross of St. Cuthbert is to be found outside St Mary’s Cathedral just opposite Central Station. The statue is set in a garden that reflects his love of the holy landscape of Northumbria and of the Northern Saints and stands on a sandstone platform in the shape of Holy Island (Lindisfarne).

 

There is also a blue plaque outside the Cardinal’s birth place in Ellison Place, near the University of Northumbria, in Newcastle

Added during cooking of fried prawns and chicken. Any other uses?

 

Bought this pot off a garden when the wife mentioned that she needed some mint basil. So far, they have been flowering but not dying off as expected. Maybe I was informed wrongly... hmmm

Spicy Globe Bush Basil.

Basil is one of the most loved culinary herbs. Its scent and flavor are said to be somewhat grassy with a hint of anise. It's used in many dishes.

There are many cultivars (cultivated varieties) of basil, and some, such as lemon basils, are bred to contain a higher content of certain oils, so as to produce a stronger flavor of one kind or another. With so many different kinds of basils, they grow in many different sizes and shapes, and producing varying flavor and aroma.

Our basil plant had a ton of mushrooms growing in the bottom a couple weeks ago. What does this mean? Is it OK to consume?

More basil in my garden. I have a colony of grasshoppers who live below the basil and you can see that they feast on it.

If I look really cute, she might give me some basil.

Possibly the grossest drink ever - basil seed! Looks and tastes like tadpoles >.<

Basil's on-going treatment means that when he is older he will become a ridden pony and enjoy his future in a caring new loan home.

 

Basil is now fronting our Christmas Appeal - We hope you can support our appeal by donating today and giving life and hope to hundreds of horses and ponies like Basil in the UK - bit.ly/v4IiqP

When Basil offered to take 3 hot raw food divas on a ride in the jag to the Farmer's Market, I wasn't sure they'd bring him back home to me!
