As the day of the move grows closer, the piles of books, boxes and other kitchen stuff has increased and taken on a life of it’s own. The reality of leaving behind my garden and my cat has started to set in. At least I am leaving them both in capable hands. I have 6 days left to pack. I’m hopping that in that time some of my tomatoes will ripen and I will have time to make a batch of pesto to take with me.
The tomato plants have turned into trees, and my sister and mom spent the morning making pickles using the cucs from the pickle garden. Time to go through my gardening books, pack my cookbooks, give away my kitchen table and head out across the country.
