A taste of summer

Last night we had a taste of summer over dinner. I thawed tomato sauce made in August, when tomato mania ruled the manor, and we ate it on top of fresh pasta. It was the simplest of sauces - tomatoes, herbs from the garden, salt and pepper. It probably wouldn't have passed the "Now, that's Italian!" test, but oh my, was it nice.

Kiss the earth was just a dream
I came back and they were mean
I eat the tomatoes that I grow
Trapped right here no way to go
Thank You,
Forgotten but not gone,
Jim Raab
