Tomato season


Sliced ripe tomatoes, red onion, purple basil, lemon basil, regular basil and a touch of reduced strawberry-balsamic vinegar. Tomatoes that tastes like tomatoes. If only that weren't so rare.

I finally unearthed my carrot pots from beneath the sage bushes which are threatening to take over the rose garden. Under the canopy of sage, I also found basil (one large potted plant), a gardening glove, two rosemary bushes (planted earlier this year), a garden hose adapter, and three pink rose bushes in full bloom.

Speaking of the garden -- last year, we spent hours taking this...


... and doing this


-- but this year, the cherry tree has remained barren. What have we done wrong?
