This and That

Typical lunch   this  time  of  year,  tomatoes  from Desert  Hills in Ashcroft  (banana belt of  BC).  Went down and picked  up a  25 pound  box  of ripe  field tomatoes,  have had one with every meal since  getting  home. Ashcroft is a good  5  hour drive, so it  has to be  a planned trip,  expensive to  drive that  far  but so  worth  it for  me.     Finished another  pair  of scrapper socks, used  as many  of the brighter colours  as I could  find in the stash.  Ended up quite liking them.  They will go into a  basket for  Christmas  giving. And   have two  more pair on the  needles.  The darker pair look like black is the main  colour but its actually  a really dark blue. The  blue - greens  is from last blog, all  leftover  small  balls. I  haven't  seen  a  bear in my yard this  year,  last year by  mid August score was  10  blacks and 12 grizzles.  I  know that  they are  around  because  I've  seen  the   deposits  left  behind. I  just haven't seen the critters. P
