The Blessing and the Curse


Tomatoes
Originally uploaded by BCharmer

Well, we had a chilly summer, and so most of my tomatoes did not turn red. And they are somewhat mealy in texture. It is getting down into the upper 30's at night now, so I went out and picked everything off of the vine that looked useable. I will be processing for a few days; I'm thinking tomato sauce and green tomato chutneys. Guess what everyone is getting for Christmas this year?

It is rainy out, and I've got Billy Holiday on the stereo. I'm cleaning up after all of the construction that we've had on the house (which is mostly over now) and trying to rid our surfaces of dust and chunks of drywall. A hot cup of tea helps my attitude.
