Wait Wot Wot Wot.U want to ask the very same person that told Svet to stand at stove and stir flour and oil for one full hour without leaving it for even 1 millisecond a question about Pesto?
Do you have a Motar and Pestle? And you tend to shy away from Heat and One of the key Pesto ingredients is Raw Garlic which can be Spicy to point of Heat Hot
Or and I am serious You can locate a Trader Joes in Ur Hood and buy a quality fresh made Pesto from them. You can even taste it without buying it by taking the Pesto to the tasting booth and they will open and give you a sample on fresh sour dough bread fresh from their oven.

You did No what was coming now didn't ya
"SPELLING"
"I don't see any use in having a uniform and arbitrary way of spelling words. We might as well make all clothes alike and cook all dishes alike. Sameness is tiresome; variety is pleasing. I have a correspondent whose letters are always a refreshment to me, there is such a breezy unfettered originality about his orthography. He always spells Kow with a large K. Now that is just as good as to spell it with a small one. It is better. It gives the imagination a broader field, a wider scope. It suggests to the mind a grand, vague, impressive new kind of a cow."
"I have had an aversion to good spelling for sixty years and more, merely for the reason that when I was a boy there was not a thing I could do creditably except spell according to the book. It was a poor and mean distinction and I early learned to disenjoy it. I suppose that this is because the ability to spell correctly is a talent, not an acquirement. There is some dignity about an acquirement, because it is a product of your own labor. It is wages earned, whereas to be able to do a thing merely by the grace of God and not by your own effort transfers the distinction to our heavenly home---where possibly it is a matter of pride and satisfaction but it leaves you naked and bankrupt."
"I never had any large respect for good spelling. That is my feeling yet. Before the spelling-book came with its arbitrary forms, men unconsciously revealed shades of their characters and also added enlightening shades of expression to what they wrote by their spelling, and so it is possible that the spelling-book has been a doubtful benevolence to us."
"...ours is a mongrel language which started with a child's vocabulary of three hundred words, and now consists of two hundred and twenty-five thousand; the whole lot, with the exception of the original and legitimate three hundred, borrowed, stolen, smouched from every unwatched language under the sun, the spelling of each individual word of the lot locating the source of the theft and preserving the memory of the revered crime."

Well in Becky's case she is a Law expert and they clearly No how to use the law to break the law. This works unless one takes it to far of course.
I in my very short life have discovered that attorneys often charge ya for the time they have to spend learning the law on my money so they can proceed with the case and then I learned to make sure they were up to speed with other cases like mine so I did not have to spend my cold hard cash educating them.
In Indy's case history is on my side because any knowledge on food was so screwed up when he was forced to eat garbage off the street in China as served up by food vendors. Their stuff was so horrid they had to cover up with amounts of Chilies so massive in volumes the food burned the senses and destroyed any taste buds that could sense the actual ingredients. Nor am I joking

George Costanza said he tries to love pesto, but still just hates it even though everyone else seems to love it. What can't you stand, but everyone else seems to just love.
I never understood that because Pesto can be "Everything it should be and can be."
