Have you bought any Jersey Fresh produce yet? I visited my local grocery store and picked up a few ears of yellow/white corn and some Jersey tomatoes and it reminded me of why I love New Jersey so much.
Nothing beats the fresh produce that Jersey dirt produces.
So with that said.. stock up on Jersey produce for the holiday weekend and for a little while, forget about the high taxes and even higher car insurance.
Happy Memorial Day!

Gardening
It's the second week in May and I still have not planted my tomato plant. Why? It's too cold.
The thought of planting my Sweet Williams and San Marzano when the weather isn't just right seems cruel. But sitting on a sunny window sill isn't a good thing either.
So, out on the balcony they go. I hope they don't freeze.
I am also planting herbs. But of course, they will do just fine on the window sill.
I am interested in finding out how others do with gardening in places other than a backyard.
If anyone has tips to share on patio and balcony gardens, feel free to let the readers know about them.
