Well, I’m looking over at our neighbor’s garden and wondering why HE has so many tomatoes hanging on his vines, even if the vines have yellowed and are ready for the compost heap, and we have NO tomatoes except those little dinky baby ones that that silly Mya eats when she visits. Can you believe a doggy eating cherry tomatoes.  I still can’t get over it.

And what’s THIS?  My nip bed is blooming!  Does that mean there will be an even bigger nip bed next year?

YAY.  Maybe I should pee in there, just to sort of speed up the next batch.  Mama says they need fertilizer every now and then.

Uh, oh, we DO have something growing here after all, but mama says not to eat THIS!  It is a plant that has sweet little peppers to sauté in olive oil, but the first one mama picked blew her noggin right off.  Can that happen on the same plant?  Jalapenas maybe got into the gene pool or something?  I’m steering clear of that one…

Oh, boy, we do still have some basil for our Sunday night pizza, thank heaven.  Even if I do only get the mozz!

Uh, oh, more cherry tomatoes that are ripening.  That means more visits from that wiggly wonder and more having to entertain her while she runs around the garden liked a crazed weasel looking for you know what.

Still, it’s nice to have something to offer your guests.
