We've been great about not spending lately, the tiffin tin has been used daily (by C, not me. . .i just take a plate wrapped in tin foil or wax paper, so unglamorous), and the meals have been uber-fresh! We still receive bi-weekly organic produce, and since it's gardening season I've been getting all local choices. Seems we should be knee deep in tomatoes right now, but I'm not sure where they are and why they're hiding. Maybe their pretending to be zucchini--'cause you know how those buggers are--you don't see them until they're bigger than a baseball bat.
Maybe we'll have basketball sized tomatoes. Or larger. Sounds like a really bad horror movie, I think.
This past weekend, though, the farmer's market held a tomato tasting, and while I didn't get to try all of the tomatoes, I tried at least 10. And came home with 4 or 5 pounds of them, ranging in color from pink to black, and have yet to have a proper tomato sandwich this year. That needs to be remedied.
As always, many other things are in the works, but they're not ready for showing. Soon though, friends, soon.

The Museum of Useful Things carefully curates well designed goods with absolute utilitarianism, making you feel like you need one of everything not only because it looks good, but also because you actually need it.
The Lena Corwin contest results over on Design Sponge are pretty and inspiring!
