It Was Bound to Come to an End

     Last of the summer BBQ's at the Seniors' Centre today, followed by Bridge. My partner and I had great cards and won two rubbers which makes up for last week's dismal result. I brought home half of the lunch and will have it for dinner tonight, it was very plentiful!

    I brought in a humungous tomato yesterday, it weighed over a lb. Not sure how I will use it as the large ones tend to be a bit dense so it will probably go into a stew or sauce. The smaller ones are better for sandwiches or salads and there are still plenty of them to pick.  

   The pool will be closed down on Wednesday but I have swum almost every day up until yesterday. The weather has suddenly turned very Autumnal although September has been superb on the whole. A stormy night forecast tonight then cooler temperatures for the rest of the week.

  1. Same here - Autumn has definitely lasted at last.
    I don't think I have ever seen a tomato that big!

    1. I'm not sure which plant it came from as I would definitely get it again next year.

  2. What a great way to say goodbye to summer with a large tomato from your garden (col). I cannot believe how quickly the leaves have turned this Autumn, several are already done in our area which could be because we haven't had rain up until yesterday.

    1. Not much colour here yet but the rain did bring down some leaves.

  3. Swimming every day is a great achievement. You must really love having your pool. Xx

    1. I will miss my daily swim. I really should go regularly to the local indoor pool this winter.

  4. You have done very well with your swimming and the tomato patch by the sounds of it. Yes, it certainly feels like Autumn.

  5. Good for you in managing to keep your pool open this long. Here in my little corner of Saskatchewan we are back up to summer-like temperatures, but it is bound to cool off with a vengeance very soon.

    God bless.
