We have SO many tomatoes in the store right now we are out of room. Not to mention what is still in the garden. So…. If your looking for something fun to do this weekend I really recommend you try bottling some tomatoes or making tomato sauce or even just eat them for dinner. You know, slice em, dust with a little salt and pepper and sprinkle with layer of mozzarella cheese add a few ribbons of basil, Mmmm!

Oh! Those thunderstorms that have come in have been incredible to watch! I feel a little guilty ( just because he has to get up early for work) but I made my husband go for a walk with me at midnight the first night it rained just so I could enjoy it a little longer. And last nights storm I put off doing my animal chores when I usually do them just so I could be out there watching the lighting spiderweb across the sky.

But back to the real reason you came to the blog today. Your shares! Man oh man they are pretty today. And my son says the food is delicious ( he may or may not be ready for lunch right now).

Squash

Cucumbers

Beans

Beets

Eggplants
