The tomato crop here in NYS was terrible.

Too wet and cool and blight go to most of them.

It’s finally dried out some and warmed up a bit and a COUPLE of my plants finally decided to put out some flowers. Probably too late for a crop this fall. I doubt they’ll be ready before the first frost.

That’s a bummer.

I think I said cherry tomatoes but I think they are actually small Roma tomatoes.

I can at least tell an ear of corn! LOL

Had some fun grilling ears of corn a couple weeks ago. Soaked ‘em for at least 45 minutes but I let them run long. At one point I was turning them and about 4 or 5 caught on fire (the husks). That was fun. I just went and got the big bowl of water, dunked them one by one and then back on the grill.

It was all still great stuff with butter, salt and pepper. That’s all I ate one day - 3 ears.
