In the dead of winter I have a gift of summer

Remember my post from Thursday, October 22 about rescuing my tomatoes from the back yard? 

Well, these are the last of them and I am going to eat them today. Imagine! December 26th and I am going to eat tomatoes from my own garden! 





This is what they looked like when I picked them.



And they have been sitting on my kitchen counter ever since. 


One by one, They have turned a sunny yellow and yes, I have eaten them!


As I pop each one into my mouth, I close my eyes and days of sunshine and warmth flow back into my mind's eye and I am able to bask in summer's goodness and glory!


I'm so glad I rescued these little tomatoes!
