Collected sufficient tomatoes for a small sauce. Added basil and garlic to the pot & behold! With that in mind, began new contemporary novel, came up with a new PB title, and submitted a revised story. Clearly thrilled! #writer #tomatoseason #tomatosauce #writingaboutgardens #writerscommunity

Contest - Day 3 - Tomato plants are pulling further away from middle. Can you see a few hopeful surprises hidden among protective stems? Imagine how much spray farmers use so veggies get to market. Suggestions for using an organic spray? #garden #gardenstress #writingaboutgardens #writingcommunity

CONTEST! Take your entire garden harvest for a day. Turn it into something else. PRIZE?! The satisfaction in being creative is a prize unto itself. Have fun! P.S. I'm lucky that my harvest today is quite small. #garden #harvest #foodart #contests #writingaboutgardens #writingcommunity #writers
