Garden Update and a Happy Surprise!


No deep thoughts here...just tomatoes and an unexpected happy surprise.

Tomatoes and peppers coming out of our ears, so to speak, though more accurately, coming out of compost and soil, and especially of the late summer rains that finally came. All the hose watering, all the carrying shower water and sink water and every last bit of saved water doled out during 5 months of drought didn't do what a couple weeks of regular rain did.

Sliced tomato with mozzerella, tomato soup, BLTs, salsa, omelets, tomatoes sliced, diced, fried, casseroled, in salads and sandwiches, given away, stuffed, broiled...and you thought zucchini was the garden wunderkind? Oh no, this year it is tomatoes...

...and peppers. But that's another story.

And I love them.

And I LOVE this journal which just today I won from Tami Chacon . Isn't it great? Take a look at her etsy shop, Choose Joy Studio while you're at it, because there's a lot more of her work there and you just might find something you can't live without.

Gracias, Tami!

PS: see the acorn squash next to the bowl of tomatoes up there? That's the mystery vegetable!
