A lovely little collection of essays from an heirloom tomato farmer. I could have done without the groundhog essays but enjoyed hearing about market, trips into the city and the work in the fields.

I do wish I had read it in the spring or summer when I could see my own tomato plants. I had to content myself with softly stroking all my canning from last year‘s crop instead.

Finished during #20in4

Prairiegirl_reading I got my seeds all ready to go already. I can‘t wait to get started. 🍅🍅🍅🍅 3y
janeycanuck @Prairiegirl_reading we‘ve never been able to get strong plants when we try seeds 😔 But happily, we have a great nursery nearby that stocks our favourite varieties! 3y
Prairiegirl_reading @janeycanuck we have a great nursery near by too. I buy from them every year and I‘ll use them for back up if things go south with my seeds. 😄 3y
Andrew65 Well done 👏👏 3y

#ForeverNovember Day 17: Homeless and scared, Anna‘s family took only a few of their valuables as they moved from one hiding place to the next, relying on the kindness of strangers. One of the precious things that they took with them was the magical tea set – a marriage gift to Anna‘s parents from Aunt Rebecca in Minsk - #AuntsAndUncles. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-9sB

An 1839 German edition of Imitation of Christ that, from what I can tell, was given to my second great grandfather Hindermann in 1873, when he was around 16.

LeahBergen Cool! 5y
Seshat Thanks, @LeahBergen @tpixie I wanted to have a picture of the inscription, too, but Litsy only allows one picture. 5y

This cookbook was so worth the $4 I paid for it, and it's in almost new condition! And it has absolutely beautiful pictures in it! This is Pierino's Bell Peppers, one of our favorite recipes from the cookbook. #ilovetocook

The Little Bill books are in the top ten most banned and challenged books for 2016. I ordered one at random for my reading class and had a good laugh over this page.

Frantically trying to finish this #crochet afghan for my mother-in-law in time for Christmas. Her Grandma made the #grannysquares decades ago. I found the tote stacked with gorgeous grannies about 4 years ago, just sitting there, and told her I would be honored to finish it. Weaving ends, blocking, connecting, having babies, #breastfeeding sore wrists has all occured but I'm almost done!😀 #audiobook #heirloom
