well.. it isn't really summer yet. But I went to Fresh Market yesterday because I happened to be at the Office Depot right next to it- and when I walked in the first thing I saw was a giant mound of bright red, organic tomatoes. They were so beautiful that my mouth immediately started watering but I thought- nah, it really isn't time for them yet, I can wait (for those of you who don't know, tomatoes are probably one of my favorite foods in the entire world... and I happen to be rather allergic to them)... but then I walked to the far side of the display and saw big bouquets of basil... and then I saw fresh mozzarella.. and Fresh Market won. I put all three in my cart and was almost skipping with happiness. Then I went to the meat counter just to see what they had and get some ideas for future meals but they had these sirloin burgers with portabella and gouda so I caved and purchased two of those as well. When I got home I threw together a tomato salad and Joe grilled the burgers with some ciabatta rolls I bought for them. We cleaned off the deck table and had our dinner out there.... despite one gnat landing in Joe's wine it was really rather lovely.

Welcome Summer...
A very dry Pinot Noir paired nicely with our dinner.
So good... especially on the plates I've been eating on for as long as I can remember, lol.
