Happiness
is a home-grown tomato!
The
garden…
**…
and the slicer tomatoes are coming along. I can pick one here and there, but I’m getting
impatient for the green ones to turn red or yellow-orange or whatever color the
heirlooms called Copia will be when they ripen. The photo above is of a
Nebraska Wedding heirloom.
**Gardening
is all about a level of hope that borders on insanity, and I’m extremely hopeful
that enough tomatoes and cucumbers are ripe at the same time to make Gazpacho.
**If
not, or if I’m too lazy, I’ll just eat bowls of fresh veggies. They don’t need
much adornment, but some Garlic and Herb Vegetable Dip is nice. I even stirred
some sour cream into what was left of a container of garden vegetable flavored spreadable
cream cheese, and that made a good veggie dip, too.
**I
seem to have created a hybrid cucumber-cherry tomato jungle. Sorry, not sorry.
**The
zucchini are coming! One or two at a time so far, but I’m armed with this list
from The Archives, and this recipe I’m hoping to try out this week.
Reading…
**If
you don’t hear from me for a while, come and check to see if I’ve been pinned
under To Green Angel Tower. It’s a big
book.
**I
might start something quicker this weekend, perhaps The Miserable Mill, part 4 of A
Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket. What can I say? I like
series.
Recent
deliciousness…
**Pizza
with Basic Basil Pesto, home-grown cherry tomatoes, and three cheeses: feta, mozzarella,
and parmesan
**Sweet corn is at its peak! No need to do much but eat it right off the cob.
The
Day Job
**The
one work-related text I love getting on a Friday evening: “I will work tomorrow’s
open shift.” Saturday, here I come!
Happy
birthday to my brother, Jon!
