Wow, you mean for once they're not debating or studying scripture? That's a first!So I can't sleep and decided to go on chat in the BibleStudy room. They are really funny. LOL It's kinda cool how they're completely different people from those of us on the forum. I felt like a newbie.

Ugh, I went to look for basil to put on a plain cheese pizza that I had sliced fresh tomatoes onto, and discovered that I too was all out of basilWell lookie here, right here in my cupboard, in the middle of my spice rack.
What's that, I see?
Not ONE, but two--count 'em, TWO--huge, honkin' bottles of basil.
Two heavenly jars simply RUNNING OVER with basil.
Like, lots and lots of basil.
Basil coming out of my ears.
In fact, I just DON'T KNOW what to do with AAAALLLLLL this delectably fragrant, chili-enhancing basil.
And don't go lecturing me about fresh vs. dried, because we don't want to lose sight of THE most important issue here.
Some of us have basil.
And some do not.
I searched through all my packages of herbs and spices, and finally settled on something called Provence blend, because it had basil in it among other herbs including Rosemary. I also dashed some Mrs. Dash on the pizza because, heavens to mergatroyd! I was all out of black pepper also 
He found it before I did... He pointed out to me that the package said Basil Leaf, as if perhaps had he known it was a leaf, he might have found it faster LOL
Next time ask him "Where are the spices?"Ugh, I went to look for basil to put on a plain cheese pizza that I had sliced fresh tomatoes onto, and discovered that I too was all out of basil
My daughter and I went shopping at Walmart on Saturday. It was our second time there... well, third if you count the fact that the first time we went, shortly after we arrived, the fire alarm started and everyone had to exit the store. We were close to the parking exit when the alarm finally stopped, so I parked the car and we returned to the store.
Any who, I asked a store assistant where I could find basil. He had no idea what I was asking about. I tried to think of some way to help him understand where it might be situated, and the only thing could think of besides saying it was a herb, was saying it might be with the onion powder. He directed me to aisle nine.
By the time I got there, he was looking through the herbs. I was pleasantly surprised to see him there, exclaiming, oh! There you are. I think he wanted to know what this elusive mysterious basil was
So now I have my beloved basil back, and black pepper to spare
Heh, the problem is, we started in the spice aisle
But they seemed to be Asian oriented spices, although salt and pepper were also there... and there were a few herbs, but not enough to represent what would normally be present in a herb section... there were some powdered/flaked things, but mostly bottled stuff I found this in the same section, and bought a bottle:
My specialty is white chocolate with raspberries on top, smothered in a melted chocolate and sour cream topping. 
Haha, I have no idea how many spice areas there are in Walmart
I did not notice what all else was in aisle nine. The sales assistant was further down the aisle than I was when he found the basil leaf... whereas I suppose that the spices would be in alphabetical order, though I found no Basil between "A" and "C." I will check it out a little closer next time; it was only my second time around the store, which is fairly new. Twice I was approached by a young Asian man asking me for directions to some certain product in the store. His English was not very good, so I had to ask him to repeat himslef each time. The firt time he was looking for a converter, which would have been electronics, and I told him I had no idea where those were. The second item I forget what he was looking for, but he did ask me where he could find a sales associate, so I sent him to the food section where I had received so much help
