tis the season

I have tomatoes coming out of my ears!  And peppers!  And grapes!

I am so appreciative of the bounty of my garden, and my daughter's grape vines.  I love that the goodness of these things can be preserved and enjoyed months from now.  But it is overwhelming!  I have jars and lids and pots and tomatoes everywhere, all demanding attention right now!  Did I mention the parsley and basil that need to be made into pesto? 

I always complain that it is too much work and too much pressure all at once, but I really like it.  Mess and commotion and bounty.  Thank you, mother earth, for all the goodness.

  1. Totally agree! Mother Nature has been generous to us too - - tons of tomatoes and grapes, as well!
