These stairs go on and on.stairs up the hillI didn’t go down and back up immediately.

Vine Ripe and Oh So Juicy

I love summer! But I really love late summer when harvest time rolls around. One of my aunts has a  farm and orchard in Eastern Washington. She came to visit this past week, and she brought us a bounty of fruits and vegetables picked early in the morning, ripe from the vine.

We’ve been eating pears, sweet corn, cucumbers, grapes, yellow plums, red beefy tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, roma tomatoes, and yellow tomatoes,  I didn’t take photos of all of it, but she brought us fresh from the tree peaches, and let me tell you what, they are so good and juicy!

Oh my goodness… can you imagine such goodness, all fresh from the farm!  I love weight watchers at this moment! Why you may ask? Because most of these fruits and vegetables are zero points per serving.

Oh yes!
