BASIL- that reminds me (as this, and my mints were the only things to thrive for me this year)- would you mind posting your pesto recipe that you mentioned that you freeze? I've got lots o'basil and thought that would be a fine idea to do as well.
Oh, yes, and you know your microwave fudgy cake you posted about once upon a time? Betty Crocker mimicked you- you can now by little kits of mix and a microwavable bowl to make chocolate cake, brownies, and the like.
I have a friend that is going through the same sort of pre-SAD gloom- she's also a big gardener, and says that on the one hand putting the gardens to bed keeps her busy and she doesn't dwell on the feelings coming on, yet putting the gardens to bed is gloomy in and of itself. The winter doesn't hit me hard until February- gods that month is bleak to me, but until then, I revel in the autumn changes.
