The taste of summer

Hi
It's been a mixed summer, alternating between scorching heat and torrential rain. My garden is relatively new, and I am still learning what to plant where, and what is likely to survive. The cat digging up seedlings was one problem I had to overcome, but I think I have conquered that.
I love the summer fruits, and the cherries have been juicy and sweet. I can't grow anything like that in my coastal region. What I can grow are tomatoes, the quintessential taste of summer. I had bruschetta for breakfast this morning, topped with my home-grown basil. Yum.
Later today, I shall try my hand at some tomato sauce, or perhaps some puree to use in coming months.
I am still researching recipes. What is your favourite tomato recipe? Email me here.
regards
Emily

Retribution
by C J Laurence
After years of torment and pain, I’m just a shadow of the woman I once was. Even now, after months of freedom, the lingering aches of broken bones, and the memories of unspeakable horrors still keep me from living a life of peace.
While I try my best to put back all the broken pieces, the last thing I need is another man—or so I thought.
Jake is one of Hollywood’s hottest, most popular actors. He’s the kind of man a woman like me should avoid at all costs. But his determination to prove to me that happiness is more than just a shattered dream slowly starts to break down my defenses, and I start to hope that I might still be able to find love.
Unfortunately, with a painful history like mine, hoping for a better future can turn out to be a huge mistake—especially when the demons of your past refuse to let you go.
If you love stories that focus on real-life issues, then this is the book for you.
