Basil Pesto

This may not be the best recipe in the world for basil pesto & maybe they are all pretty similar- anyway... I'm going to post it, because the title for my recipes are "simple and easy"- this one definitely fits the description.
I will say that for whatever reason- I haven't cooked with fresh herbs much in the past. That is going to change. I picked up 2 bundles of fresh basil at the farmers market & my kitchen smelled sooooo good. When I tore the leaves off, my fingers smelled great. For that alone, I want to keep it in the house at all times. I was in a hurry to make the pesto & called a friend. She told me what she remembered & maybe I changed some things. I'm sure the amount of garlic- because I love it!
I tore the leaves & put them in the blender with 1/2 cup of pine nuts, about 4 chopped garlic cloves- a little more than 1/2 cup of parmesean cheese, some salt & pepper & pulsed it. I slowly added olive oil. I'm not sure how much, but added it until it looked like a pesto sauce. I put it on my noodles & that was it. I'm not even completely sure that I did everything "right" but it was right for me, because I will be eating it every Saturday that I am home after the farmers market.
People out there who love to cook could probably give me tips, but I did like this, even though I had never been a big pesto person. I hear that basil is very easy to grow, so I will try that as well.
