In my travels, I often skip restaurants in favor of a more intimate option… picnics! I’ve written quite a bit about the limited offerings of Danish grocery stores, so it’s a treat to browse the aisles of a well stocked supermarket or delicatessen when I’m abroad.
I was a bit skeptical at first. Then I tasted it and I thought it was delicious, so I shared some with an Italian colleague who gave it her stamp of approval. And with that endorsement, I’ll share my frugal pesto recipe with you…
With this post, I’ll wish you a happy Thanksgiving! I’m cooking a Thanksgiving dinner on Friday and looking forward to spending time with my local “family.” I’ll see you here next week, or maybe on Facebook before then :)

Yes, alternative nuts in pesto a great idea. I use hazelnuts and/or almonds — which I used to be able to grow myself! Not at the moment though. But even purchased, much less costly than pinenuts. YAY, you, YAY Robert!

Hi Sage, So, I was searching for a vegetarian dish for dinner tonight come across your amazing blog and instantly fell in love! I too am from Connecticut, still residing here unfortunately, and can relate to your life story, your desire to live life experiencing every breath, and love for vintage (and of course a love to not eat any living creature)!! Thank you for sharing so many veg friendly recipes (i have a lot of reading to do) and your inspiring and fear free take on life!!
