Disappointment

I bought a box of Froot Loops tonight in hopes of scoring a Cars toy — hopefully a Sheriff, or perhaps a Sally — but the people at the factory forgot to put a toy in there. It was a giant box, too. All those Froot Loops for nothing. And they didn’t have any boxes of Frosted Flakes with Cars toys in them, which was what I really wanted.

Poop.

At least the frogs are singing tonight, and Bombalurina came to visit just as we got home from the grocery store, so the evening wasn’t a total loss. But still … no toy in my Froot Loops? What a disappointment.

Tomatoes!

At least five of my tomato plants have little teeny baby tomatoes growing on them: Royal Hillbilly, Brandywine Cherry, Cherokee Purple, Ugly, and a stuffing variety, the name of which escapes me at the moment.

The sunflowers are coming up, too. Ron put a fence around them to keep the dogs from trampling them. I’m looking forward to gathering big bouquets for my friends.
