It has been a wonderful year for tomatoes. Last summer they refused to ripen. This was probably for the best, since JD was only a few months old and canning them was not really a feasible option.

Cell Phone (in case my husband was able to call from Kuwait)? Che… Oh no, where’s my cell. Hold on kids, gotta find my–, oh how embarrassing…I’m talking on it…
