🎵"Farm box tomatoes farm box tomatoes What'd life be without farm box tomatoes"🎵 I used to get homegrown 🍅 but I don't live in tomatoland any more. Time for BLTs and BATs (slice em dice em). I also got the first corn of the year and zucchini so it's calabacitas time.

Double shrimp special on the menu! Jack (tuxie) and Foster Ash (gray tabby) serving up a lot of cute. #Hedgewatch

It’s a beautiful time of year at the Monterey Market - the blueberry bin is back

🎶Pickin' up my farm box 🎶Gonna eat a lot of peaches 🎶Everything's a shitshow 🎶But I got a bowl of peaches tagging @themagdalen.bsky.social for REASONS

I miss interacting with people from all my circles on Bluesky, but my dad was pretty close to dying and I just couldn't deal with the news on top of that. He's much improved but there have been other family things to attend to on top of work and other dailiness.

I mentioned See's Candy in my last post. Westerners living in other parts of the country - they ship! They have two specialty assortments that are very much to my and family tastes - "For the Love of Caramel" and "Coffee Lovers". www.sees.com/spring-gifts... www.sees.com/fall-treats/...

Today's small moment of joy: sale + points at my friendly local designer (Lesley Evers) meant I got a new pair of pants for under half off! I promptly spent my savings at See's, but I got some discounts etc. there as well!

My snarky weather app is up to the minute as always.

The Lord is risen! This was the first thing I saw this morning and ... it helped.
