My Saturday Evening Post: 11/19/22 “I Miss Tomatoes”
About this time of year, every year, I fall into the “depths of despair,” borrowing a phrase from my very good friend, Anne of Green Gables.
Why so low, you ask? Simple.
THERE ARE NO LOCAL, SUMMERY, VINE- RIPENED TOMATOES!!!
The tomatoes you find at the grocery store this time of year are, to use part of Donald Trump’s newsy allegation, “fake” tomatoes!
They taste like … well, fake tomatoes.
Side Note: Please do not tell anyone that I agreed, even if just half agreed, with anything Donald Trump has ever said.
So what I like to do in mid-November is remember, somehow both sadly and joyfully, July tomatoes.
Here are a few memories of the Real Deals.
My Tomato Pies!
Tomato beauty.
I miss you, July Tomatoes.
Sheepish
HR and yours truly. Lying in the Sheep Meadow. Central Park. NYC. 2016. Our very first trip to New York City together.
“These vagabond shoes ….” 🎶
“Robert and … #29”
A blog category of pics I’ve taken of HR (Hubby Robert) and … well, just about anything.
Robert and … two tidy Irishmen.

“Locked”
So here I am (pic below), at the very top of Georgia’s Sapelo Island Lighthouse last week. Yvonne, our incredible tour guide, (inexplicably and even more incredibly) gave ME these keys and told me to unlock the hatch at the top of the lighthouse for the five of us who braved the winds (of approaching storm Nicole) to go to the very top.
After much struggle, I finally got the HEAVY hatch open, and we scaled the heights.
Robert found everything hilarious up there, while I fake laughed (and held on to him) …
Bad Advice? (Or Good?)
Five Friday Happy Bringers 10/28/22
1. Grand twins Matthew and Madison, along with little sister Isabelle and all their cool socks, on Crazy Sock Day at school.
2. Politically CORRECT Halloween decorations near us here in Historic District Savannah.
As in 2020, our Southern state is again paramount in keeping our U.S. democracy alive.
3. Celebrating the wonder of a smile.
4. Fall doors in Savannah.
5. The setting sun. And knowing that it will rise again in the morn.
Wishing you a joyful day from the rising of the sun to the going down of the same.
Jacked
So HR and I were on a morning walk today here in downtown Savannah near us and came across this cool holiday display …
“How cute,” I exclaimed. Until I realized that someone had actually CARVED THAT INCREDIBLE JACK-O’-LANTERN!
SERIOUSLY?
For the past 60 years, my jack-o’-lanterns have looked exactly the same.
Pumpkin Joy!
