Tomatoes


It's been a tomato-ripening summer here in Wellington, for a change. Actual ripe, edible tomatoes on the vines. And a huge crop of white-fleshed nectarines, too many to cope with as they all came ripe within a week. Zucchini, beans, strawberries. The odd zucchini that got away from me and grew enormous, like a joke vegetable.

Tentative steps

My first steps into the blogiverse are taken tentatively. It feels odd to be here. However...here I go, launching the good ship hissing swan. Cheers.
