I don't mind rain so much if I don't have to go out in it, and if it doesn't hang around too long. We've needed rain lately, so were glad to get some. I so appreciate AC, too. I'd have a hard time without it. Your cart does look like it's interested in whatever you're doing. Yay for fresh garden produce.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your recipe!
ReplyDeleteI must admit I love the rain. But I love the sun, too. A good mix is the best.
ReplyDeleteFresh tomatoes are a true gift of friendship and neighborliness.
And I agree on AC being a blessing.
Have a good weekend!
We're having a heatwave here so AC would be nice but it's not the norm in the UK. Fresh tomatoes are so much better than shop bought. Have a good week.
