sexy robot

 

Last summer my parents farm in Easton Maryland produced about 60 tons (or something) of purple and green basil. Michael suggested we make pesto even though he's the only one in the family who really likes it. But hating to turn down a food challenge, I proceeded to make about 60 tons (or something) of pesto that we decided to give as gifts.

Coming up with a name was important and Nate, to my surprise and slight horror, suggested "sexy robot." A pesto was born. I found these cute jars at Target and froze the pesto in them for months. Then I made my own labels here. Now I have about 30 of these (with ribbons and cards) to give out to friends and family.
