Hello from the Housegawa Garden! I picked my first tomatoes this week, on the exact same day I picked my first tomatoes last year! These are “advanced” Black Cherry Tomatoes (also the same variety I picked last year!) because the rest are green on the vine. I have no idea why two ripen much sooner than the rest!
I have so much to share! Naoto and I spent the first part of the summer in Japan, our first trip back since Covid! It was so great to be back to see Naoto’s family and revisit our favorite places along with some new ones. We took a fun side trip to the gyoza capital of Japan, which I can’t wait to tell you about!
Then, we caught Covid on the plane and spent our first days home sick, quarantining, recovering, and then catching up with everything we missed in June. But now, we’re feeling rested and ready make the most of the rest of the summer. Whew!
So, if you’re still around, HELLO! Please tell me what YOU have been up to!
