Hi Rich! Blue must be the color of the week!
(the bicycle in your summertime photo).
I see a lot of "garden bicycles" these days. Sometimes they just lean them up against a tree in the front yard for nostalgia.
I have 2 vintage 10 speeds from the 1970s but I could never plant them outside in the elements.
One is parked nicely in our guest bedroom though!
(who else can park their favorite "car" in a spare bedroom?)
hahaha
Hi Quint!
You sound optimistic about your garden this year!
That looks like a little tomato in a jesters hat!
Excellent sharp detail in your photo.
I don't plant many salad tomatoes. Mostly roma/plums
because they are less pulpy and watery.
If I process them, I like to bake them until the skins split and then rinse with cool water.
It renders a richer juice if some of the moisture is baked out and the flavor concentrated.
Roma/plums make nice roasting appetizers
(cut in half lengthwise, drizzle with olive oil, oregano and a dash of favorite cheese.)
This is our new and recent Eastern Porchlight Bird (LOL a Eastern Phoebe)
They love building their nest on top of our porch chadelier.
She saw me outside and was waiting to get back to her nest.
