I love making and eating soup. This one is vegetarian, hallal and kosher, good if you’ve got different kind of people coming over.

Basil Update

A while ago I planted some basil seeds. I must have some green fingers, because this is what it looks like at the moment. In a few weeks I can cook with my own homegrown basil; maybe lasagna?
