the good.
i bit the bullet and bought myself some “for-real” fabric scissors. that’s right, i bought a gingher and oh am i a happy girl.
isn’t she lovely? isn’t she wonderfuuul? i hear they cut like a dream! i can’t wait to use them!!
the bad.
my beloved tomatoes. the tomatoes that i have been swooning over. the ones that i have gently high-fived and encouraged to grow. well…they grew…i harvested…and they were…underwhelming. realllly underwhelming. they managed to be dry. how does that happen? the tomato…a fruit that is essentially filled with a lot of juice and seeds and normally bursts when you bite into them. mine turned out dry and mealy. yuck. i was so disappointed. note to self – next year…buy quality heirloom tomato seeds and don’t overcrowd the pot. i’m crossing my fingers for a juicier harvest.
the ugly.
the tomato plant that produced said dry sad fruit. i think i gave up watering it and loving on it after tasting a dozen or so dry tomatoes. go away ugly plant…come back again next year…but juicy. thanks.
and lastly, this is neither good or bad or ugly, but rather awesome. trader joe’s maple leaf cookies. these seasonal items are DELICIOUS. bummed that they’re only on the shelves once a year. time to stock up!!
happy christmas!
hey, i just read about those scissors! they look nice.
um, i just showed your tomato plant to my parents and they giggled…
