September Surprise

I was a bit bummed to have missed the peak of berry season here in the Pacific Northwest. While we had plenty of papaya and the most magnificent of manilla mangos in Mexico, I couldn't help but dream of topping my yogurt with a handful of blueberries every once in awhile. Luckily, I made it home just in time to pick an abundance of cherry tomatoes from the makeshift garden in the backyard of my aunt's house where I have been staying in Ravenna. This is the second basketful in two days... Apparently due to the unfortunate weather (which I fortunately missed while away) the tomatoes are ripening late. Fine by me.
