Bring Us a Barrel

Way back on March 21st, I decided I couldn't wait any longer and I planted my tomatoes and stuff in Burgundy barrels. Everybody and their brother said it was way too soon, we hadn't had our last freeze yet, they were all sure to wilt, blah, blah, blah. The lady at the nursery looked like I was deluded last week when I told her my Sweet 100's had set fruit. Well, all those naysayers can SUCK IT.

Worst Blogger Ever

I could make some excuse that I've been busy around the house, stripping cabinets, working on the yard, cleaning, baking bread, churning butter, milking cows, you know. crap like that, but really I'm just a lazy, lazy blogger. (I haven't even been knitting.)

Also, we've been sort of social. We went to a wedding and everything this weekend. The amount of booze consumed from Saturday evening to Sunday evening was truly epic.

This picture of me at an excellent seedy bar in the tiny village of Port Costa sums it all up.
