THE FARM

Yesterday was a low-key day for me.  I mostly just lay around and slept.  The one thing I did do was go to the farm.  It was drizzling, so I made it a quick trip.  Joe went with me and it was fun going with him.  We don't do enough things together.

I didn't get very much, but what I did was so good.


Red bliss potatoes, baby heirloom tomatoes, garlic, 1/4 of a watermelon and 4 nectarines.

The watermelon is gone.  So sweet and good!  It was dessert for dinner last night.  I made a "What You Have" Pie for dinner and some of the tomatoes went into that.  Oh my!  I am making a salad for dinner and will use some more of them in that.  Joe has already eaten two of the nectarines.  He said they were sweet and he can't wait to eat the others.  I plan on making potato salad with the red potatoes for dinner.

Well, that didn't last long.  I love eating veggies that were growing in the field less than a week ago.  That's the best thing about this time of year.

  1. I agree on the veggies growing locally. We have had wonderful tomatoes, cucumbers, squash, okra, corn and now watermelons...so sweet and juicy. Glad you enjoy what you purchased.
