It’s been awhile since I’ve entered anything here so here goes…
It’s August already and school starts in a few short weeks – so that shoots summer! (I teach graphic design at Philadelphia University in the School of Design and Media. )
This summer has been hot and muggy but I guess that’s what summer is like in an east coast city – but it means my real garden is a shambles – all over grown – plants love this hot humidity!

The tomatoes are coming into their own so its something with tomatoes every night – also the herbs – lots of pesto with the tomatoes – can’t get enough in the summer. I’ve tried the freezing pesto to have on a wintry day but it’s not the same. Just as there is nothing like a fresh garden tomato you should eat pesto in the summer.

Some things I’ll talk about in the coming days are my herbs – esp. the hanging pots I planted and walnut ink! But this is all for today!
