I know that red and green have been claimed by the Christmas season, but I think red and green are the sign that summer has arrived!
There's a tradition at the Eaton house when the first tomato ripens.
It's a special meal consisting of the exact same thing every year:
- Wonder bread
- Original Black Label bacon
- Ripe garden tomato
- Kraft onion dip
- Ruffles potato chips
- Sonic Coke

Not just any old Coke, but a Sonic coke? I've never eaten at Sonic, so you'll have to fill me in. Now I'm hungry for a BLT. :-)
ReplyDeleteHa ha! We call them a TBT (Tomato-Bacon-Tomato, who needs lettuce!)
DeleteOh, how sad I am for you that you don't have Sonic! In the South there's pretty much a Sonic in every section of every town. Their food is just regular fast food stuff, but they must do something secret and special in their drinks. I think it's the ice! If you ever travel to a state that has one, you must get a drink... and think of me!
red and green are such beautiful colors for the barn and landscape.
ReplyDeleteIts an amazing piece, Helen.... and the tomatoes look so juicy!!!!
Thanks! But... I do wonder if any real farmer would have such a pretty and tidy little farm... no farm equipment sitting around, no patches of grass wallowed away... Ahh... but maybe that's why it's a better painting than a real-life photograph! :)
