Fresh tomatoes would be a wonderful taste.

The last store bought ones here, were tough and tasteless.

I am glad you can still grow them.

And wishing that I could also.

Thinking about the upside down garden in pots this year. No weeds.

Wish I could send you some tomatoes this summer. I’ll probably have plenty. I hate “store-bought” tomatoes, too. They are totally tasteless.

I haven’t even been able to get my garden broken up yet, because of all the rain. I was hoping for next week, but now we are due for more rain.

Changing the subject, but I thought you might get a kick out of this: I like to make blackberry jam cakes, but had to make my own jam from frozen blackberries because I could not find any in the stores that had seeds and pulp. In fact, Smucker’s bb jam is more like jelly. I had gone online looking for some, but even the Amish jam was seedless.

Well, a friend went to North Carolina last week and came back with a jar of bb jam for me with seeds and all. Guess where it came from. Switzerland, of all places.
