Sipping at my soda, sitting on my sofa

I hit the jackpot at a sale last weekend. I got this great desk for the kids. I also got this amazing gentleman’s wardrobe for our mudroom and this beautiful sofa for my library. I might feel a bit like Katharine Hepburn sitting on this sofa. But, no. I doubt I’ll be sipping soda on it.

My tomato had an appendage. Or something. A horn? A thumb? I don’t know, but it sure was tasty.

Is that a carrot in your pocket?

The rutabaga and carrots? Huge! And tasty!

The canteloupe? Ripe! And tasty!

There’s no way to escape the sunrise and the sunset

I made 19 pints of tomato sauce to put in the freezer. I used tomatoes, green peppers and onions from our garden and fresh herbs.
