Sugar & Tomatoes (and a new desk)

Not together silly!

Sugar had her babies while we were on vacation, so we missed the birth and new-newborn stage. But playing with two week old kittens was good enough for us. There are three and they are all very cute. She is a mellow mom and didn't mind us handling her babies. I think she was glad to see us again. I can't wait until she and a kitten come home. I'm leaning toward the tabby one.
Yikes, there were a lot of tomatoes ready to be picked when we got back. My helpers and I gathered as many as we could. And then we snacked and snacked. And then we took tomatoes to school and work. And then we did it all again. And again. I love harvest time! The yellowish-green ones in the lower left corner are very unique. I cannot remember what they are called, (green grape maybe? here are a bunch of green tomatoes) but they taste almost smokey. I like 'em.
And finally, the new desk we ordered way back in May arrived last weekend. I found it at Cottage Chic in Aberdeen, NC. I love it!

I love the desk. It is great. We don't have quite that many tomatoes and we can't seem to keep them around very long. We pick 10 or so and eat them all right away. Yum yum

Good on ya,
I love what you two are doing! It's fun to see all the kids growing up together. Sugar is a great looking cat and I vote for the tabby cat too! The desk is a definite improvement....I have tomatoes too, big red ones, and they are just now getting ready to eat. Getting ready for High&Dry bluegrass festival..it's going great.
