Do you like pie? Mmmm...my photostream was due for a splash of colour too, so good timing.

This kind is called Summer Harvest - it has blackberries, raspberries, rhubarb, apple and pear in it, all prepared just right to create a soft, moist, juicy, delicious pie. Pie is good! Amazingly, this was only $5.99 - I bought it out of town. It would've cost almost twice that in Toronto. But they don't sell this kind here, so there we are.

Barack Obama likes pie too:

Here's to a more prosperous future with more pies for us all! : )

In season from the local farm.

This is a true delight in Midsummer I salute the growers and farmers in the Midwest. From Indiana and Michigan. Only the best in farm fresh produce.

I can't describe the excitement I feel each time I see one of these is ready to be plucked free from the plant and devoured by my four year old who can't seem to get enough strawberries ♥

When my hands hurt from the cold while harvesting, I thought it should be the last call for summer veggies. Here's the take...fried green tomatoes in late December!

use your summer bounty!

From Fulcrum, another local band. Lisa provided a layer of "oooh"'s at the beginning of our song "Salvation's House."

From the summer garden...pickled peppers, tomato relish (chow chow), and zucchini bread and butter pickles.
