It occurs to me that my blog needs some photos... and that I need to write more.

It's hard to think of something worth while to post on a regular basis.

As we come to the sticky middle of the summer, I'm looking forward to the tomatoes. Those little plants that we started from seed in our living room window are nearly as tall as I am. We're waiting patiently to see what colour each tomato ripens to. This year we bought a mixed packet of heirloom seeds and I have no idea what is planted where. The anticipation is amazing!

For my next Pearl Magazine article I'll be writing about canning and preserving. Two things so new to me, but activities I'm hoping to become an old hand at. Going to attempt a quick pickle over the next week or two, and I will photo document the event.

Visions of pepper jellies, ketcup, jam and crisp & tangy vegetables...
