Catastrophe Nipped in the Bud
Last week the basil plants looked real bad, all the leaves were wilting (you know, the part that I want to eat). I ‘fixed’ them by removing all of the flower buds. I guess the flowering part was feeding off of the leafy part. The basil seems to have recovered (see picture).

Stupid flowers, I can’t eat them. If I had wanted to look at flowers then I would have planted flowers.

Basil, get in my belly!
