Ode to Heirloom Tomatoes
Heirloom Tomatoes at The Wedge this summer.
As we now begin our voyage into that wonderful time of year that involves scraping our car windows in the morning and bundling up to go get the mail I thought I would pay hommage to the things that get me through the long winter days…. Heirloom Tomatoes! The Wedge had this pile of heirlooms this summer that brought a single tear to my eye. It was exotic. provocative and utterly mouth watering…. and yes, I AM talking about the tomatoes, not DP, who was also there. The other things that get me through winter are:
Charlie Brown Christmas Trees!
Sledding Wranglor
Hot Chocolate
Reading by the fire
Waking up to new snowfalls
Slippers, sweater and throw blankets
Snuggling up for movie marathons
Christmas Eve!!! FFF!!!
Snow Days
Opening our canned vegetbles
Tax Time…most days
Movie dates
Snow boots, scarves, mittens and hats
Blizzards
Christmas cards
Mariah Carey’s Christmas album
Ice Skating
NYC in the winter
Dunchfest
Hoodies
Soup on a cold day
Orgasm Heat (you know, when the sun is out and it warms up your car when you get in from the cold)
There are so many more things that make living in Minnesota during the 5 months of winter worth every moment. It brings together people of all walks of life in an endeavor to all survive and thrive to see another summer.
