Yesterday while making dinner, Eric and I expressed how we wanted to make homemade pesto sauce. Eric, the king chef that he is, noted that we needed fresh basil and pine nuts. We were then saddened to realize that we live in utah, where foods other than mac and cheese and green jello salad don't exist. So we sulked around the kitchen wondering how we could acquire such a rarity.
Today, while driving to banana republic (eric's favorite store) we saw a huge sign that said "JUMBO PINENUTS". We pulled over and asked for a bag. Eric was so excited. I subtly tried to tell him that they were too expensive because they weren't shelled or cooked. In his haste, he decided to purchase those little guys NO MATTER WHAT! They are currently sitting on the kitchen countertop, untouched and unshelled.
Jumbo pinenuts, jumbo RIPOFF!

homemade pesto sauce? who does that? maybe you deserve the masacre that was the jumbo pine nuts due to ridiculous ambition. just go to macaroni grill or something. dont they have pesto?
