This is just the greatest time of year. My garden is anticipation central – tremendous bounty is about to come. It’s the garden I work in every day. It’s the garden for which my neighbors give thanks. It’s the garden my friends envy. Each morning I go to my backyard to inspect it (one must be vigilant in one’s garden), tend the plants and soil (one must keep one’s garden neat, clean and free of debris), and generally check things out. I see that the tomatoes and vegetables are growing bigger, and many of them are beginning to turn from green to their final glorious hues. Whether they will be striped, gold, yellow, orange, red, lilac, purple, brown, white or almost black, it is now that nature begins to reveal her deft hand.
