I'm on a real tight budget and my significant other is having a birthday next week. I've thought of a couple of very inexpensive things to buy and wrap up for the occasion, but the main thing I'm offering up is 40 basil plants, planted at my house, with a promise to water and care for them all summer long. That cost $25, which is as far as I can go. But I really like this idea.
My significant other always plants a bunch of basil and makes and freezes containers of pesto. But this year, the planting season was slipping away and there was no sign at all that the basil would be planted. So I did it. Granted, I was a little motivated by greed. I do want pesto this winter. I'm not willing to make it, but I'll grow the main ingredient!
