garlic scape pesto, a sort-of recipe

a handful (or about 1/3 of a cup) of roasted almonds
a handful (or about 1/3 cup) of grated parmesan cheese
several glugs (or about 1/2 cup) of olive oil

blend all ingredients together in a food processor (or blender or mortar and pestle). begin with about half of the olive oil and then add the rest after you've started blending. add a healthy dose of coarse sea salt. spoon mixture onto pasta, whisk into salad dressing, spread on toast--whatever soothes you.
