The Veggie Hotline

Matt just called me on the veggie hotline. The Cherry Grovers must be harvesting in the rain right now. I have to post this quickly so I can steal an hour and read the new Harry Potter before I have to go to work. But before I go, looks like this week we're getting good stuff to throw on the grill: Peppers, squash, beets, onions.

Week Seven: July 17 and July 19

Two big announcements this week. Matt is distributing tomatoes for the first time this season. I don't think the heirlooms are ready yet, though it would be a great treat if they were. Regardless, the standard tomatoes Matt grows are delicious and I eat them like apples. (I'll probably eat one before I can get my bags into the car.)

Now, you probably thought tomatoes were the biggest news I had. Attention: Matt's a new father! His son's name is Ethan and everyone is healthy and happy. I've heard Ethan has a shock of black hair and looks more than a little like his dad. I'll try and get a picture up here soon.
