                            Blanched tomatoes.....garlic and olive oil with fresh basil.... let is sit for a few hours ....served over hot pasta...
                          superb.....

                   
                                     I think that the lettuce is almost my favorite garden treat...
                               
                              Pickle day at Seaview Cottage.......a Fantastic Dill pickle recipe!!

  3. You were missed! What a great harvest and my, how busy you've been! I don't have a vegetable garden anymore, but I did have a banner harvest of blueberries, and it looks as though the cranberries aren't going to disappoint, either. Glad you're back.
