I may be in another house by the time it fruits. I am no longer seeing any of our resident toads and am really upset that the brats may be the reason.

It was so hard to say goodbye when I sold the house. I just went out to Home Goods and bought 2 jars of fig jam last week. I always made jam at Back to School time and it was so wonderful to have enough jars to last all winter.

The weather is definitely doing something weird though because I've been fighting a migraine for two days.<br /><br />I'm jealous of your potatoes. I want to try growing some next year.

And the nights are great for sleeping, down into the 50's. Everyone is talking about fall on their blogs and although the coolness sounds great, I don't want the winter that always follows. It seems like we just finished with snow and cold!<br />Those potatoes look great. I remember growing my own and how good they tasted.<br />Have a great Monday Vera and stay cool and hydrated.<br />Blessings,<br />BetsyBetsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807691752817225336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6923606944837827580.post-6607258521105473572019-08-19T13:05:05.552-04:002019-08-19T13:05:05.552-04:00I have only had dried figs, and fig newtons (which...I have only had dried figs, and fig newtons (which I think are dried figs?).
