//A lot of people like snow. I find it to be an unnecessary freezing of water.// -Carl Reiner

again, i'm always so bad about this...i guess my conviction w/everything waxes and wanes and i'm sorry.

tomatoes are odd. they're all incredibly late this year and some seem to be diseased w/ some kind of "blight". mom's tomatoes, too, so i know that it's not something that we did wrong,specifically.

hopefully, before it gets too much colder there will be enough healthily ripened to make a couple ounces of reserve sauce for winter.

speaking of which, i keep putting off freezing latkes from our potatoes and making one last batch of apple sauce from the apples i picked a couple of weeks ago.

i also want to make zucchini bread,which i haven't made yet this year as we weren't blessed w/any amount of zucchini, this year.

everything just seems really stunted and slow-going as far as the garden is concerned,this year, and it's gonna be like trying to garden in Antarctica,soon.
