What will you do today?

Today I will look no further than my own backyard for inspiration for dinner. Lettuce from the garden for salad. Tomatoes and basil from the patio planters for a quick pasta dish. Sitting down together under the cool of the maple tree to enjoy the fruits of our labour. What will you do today?

4 tomatoes diced
a handful of fresh basil
