... and Garden

I've been picking a daily handful of Sungold cherry tomatoes for about a week. Today I picked the first Pink Husky (Husky Pink?). Probably a day or two from being perfectly ripe, but it can sit on a counter. There's another one right behind.

And I peeled back the husks on an ear of corn and pricked a kernel -- milky, not clear, so it may be ready too! I've had a dozen from roadside vendors, but this is mine own!

The HP tomato was just a variety at Earl May, where I also got the Sungold and a Brandywine (which died). I did a very late job of starting seeds this year, and don't expect much in the way of heirlooms, despite what Barbara Herring says! Luckily, a few Brandywine, and some other varieties, have produced volunteers from last year, so I should get a few tomatoes at least.

I blame the rain, rather than my sloth. Who's to know?
