I just picked my first tomato this evening. A stroll along the beach sounds wonderful. WE enjoyed our beach trip with the whale watch.

I just love having my rubber elbow bent that way.<br /><br />My maternal grandfather loved gooseberries. He'd be a fan of your preserves for sure. I never could bring myself to try them. Can't imagine why... Maybe I'm thinking "grapes." =D<br /><br />Glad that you are out enjoying a stroll along the beach. That sounds very pleasant and your time with daughters and grands sounds wonderful, too.

As we were away on vacation, we weren't here to take care of our garden. I loved seeing the gooseberries; I love gooseberry pie!
