ENTRY # SIXTY-NINE

Princess, one of your Tennessee friends

Good Morning,

Most of you have met Princess, but if you havent here she is. She is supposed to be smiling but Mary woke her up from one of her naps, to take this picture and you know how that is. I would be angry too. She loves Fancy Feast and we always keep her a good supply.

Tomato Tasting.

"Invite guests over to try several tomato varieties.
Poor tomatoes; they often get a bum rap. They're not as hip as hot peppers. But you need not think of tomatoes as barely red disks that sit upon the limp lettuce of a fast-food burger. Nor as bland as the versions found in grocery stores. Tomatoes are so tasty and juicy when they're picked fresh that they can be as sweet as candy or as tangy as a tangerine. With over 3,000 varieties, there are plenty to try. SMILE.
Here's how you can put together a tomato-tasting fiesta that will leave even your tomato-leery friends saying, "Wow!"On a perfect summer day, put up a table and pull out some chairs in the shade. Choose 12 varieties of tomato, featuring guaranteed conversation-starting names such as 'Hillbilly,' 'Bull's Heart,' 'Stump of the World,' Pruden's Purple,' 'Hugh's,' 'Plum Lemon,' and 'Banana.'Slice the tomatoes into wedges and label each variety. Put out some chilled beverages and invite your friends over to sample tomatoes, recipes, and fresh bread. Good way to make new friends."
