The last few days have felt lucky. The sun is warm and bright and summer is still in swing. It seems a lot of people have started back at school - so these extra days feel like an extra gift.
Our tomatoes are finally happening. Just a few will make it this year but the ones that do are heavenly. This is the time of year to eat tomatoes with and on everything. A full day tomato diet is most likely in order. It is good to stock up and saturate the taste buds, so that when I fall for those shiny, red ones in the market in January I will have some memory of what a tomato actually tastes like.
Oh, and we made cookies.
We have been trying to be outdoors most of the time but some inside-ness is bound to happen. That is when you pull out the extra blank game board from months past. This time the theme was mining gems...ah, mes petite montanans.
Now back outside. I really do love summer.
