Hey Kari! I loved this post. I didn’t grow up here either and I’m so glad God led me here. I think life is like that too…you don’t appreciate the happy times without going through the sad ones.

Send me an email if you get a chance. I’d like to get lunch with you someday and talk about GA.

I heard an interview with he author of “Ripe: One Man’s Quest for the Perfect Tomato” on Weekend Edition this morning and thought of this post. Here is the link in case you missed it.

you knocked another one out of the park for me, friend. i’m so glad we both have such a love for our state, and to know it the way we do, makes my heart so happy. just last night, hubs and i were discussing NC. and while he (being from above that before mentioned line) may never truly feel as at home here as i do, i know it will always be home to us.

sweet looking tomatoes, how nice it is to be reminded of home even if you’re not living there anymore

I am glad to hear that you have good tomatoes and I’m sorry we missed some of the good ones when we were there!

Actually, we do have tomatoes here on PEI. We get plenty of them from gardens, but not usually until August. In fact, we have our very own hothouse tomatoes grown hydoponically right here in Charlottetown at vanKampen’s greenhouses. They have them most of the year. And they are always delicious.

I am sitting here with tears in my eyes as I remember my Granny’s home and garden — all these memories are flooding in — because of your beatiful writing — Thanks Kari! Love my memories — I will eat a mater samwich with dukes may, on white bread for you!
