Ok, I need some help...as you may know, I'm obsessed with tomatoes. I tasted something tomato-y and AWESOME this weekend but I can't figure out what it was.
We were at a rehearsal dinner this weekend at an excellent Italian restaurant in Lenox MA. The appetizers were served buffet-style on different tables. On this particular table was small slices of bread and then hummus, baba ganosh, olives, etc...very Mediterranean/Italian/Greek. In addition, there was a tomato mixture of goodness. What kind of tomato-y dish goes with those other dishes? It was sort of bruschetta-ish (supposed to go on the bread) but BETTER.
I can't even figure out the ingredients - something sweet? Balsamic vinegar? Tomatoes were definitely the main ingredient (no cheese, grain, etc...).
Please help - I can't stop thinking about it!
Sidenote: if you're ever looking for a good weekend excursion in the fall, I would definitely recommend Lenox. The wedding was obviously the high point of the weekend but Lenox on its own would have been pretty great too!

Cute
Well, I'm glad that everyone enjoyed the x-rated produce. Also, I apologize for the ten day absence - I forgot I had a blog!
Too freaking cute!
Anyway, I'm totally going to gush about Mike. Annoying but whatever, it's my blog and I can brag and be mushy about his cuteness. He went away from Friday to Sunday...when I got home on Friday night from work, these notes were all over the house.
Too freaking cute!
I can see Gange rolling his eyes right now.
Whatever.

Interesting
Huh. This is how the cucumber, lemon and lime were arranged this morning by the cleaning lady.
By the way, after the economy tanked while we were in Hawaii last year, we got all grown-up and stuff and canceled the cleaning lady, the Globe delivery and HBO.
We were back with HBO and the cleaning lady within six months. Having a clean house after working a 12 hour shift is an amazing feeling.

Two posts, one day
I am still loving this email and now I want to add my own commentary to some of them. I'm sure that will bore some of you...and to that, I say "get your own blog".
1. More often than not, when someone is telling me a story all I canthink about is that I can't wait for them to finish so that I can tellmy own story that's not only better, but also more directly involvesme. (I've never thought this...except ALL THE TIME)
2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when yourealize you're wrong. (unfortunately this happens much more than I want to admit with my husband)
3. I don't understand the purpose of the line, "I don't need to drink tohave fun." Great, no one does. But why start a fire with flint andsticks when they've invented the lighter? (YES! I also think non-drinkers have fairly boring stories. Again, I'm sure that some of you will say "JSinP, you're a TERRIBLE lightweight drinker"...but whatever, at least I try! Also, get your own blog)
4. That's enough, Nickelback. (hmmm...I don't really care one way or the other. I could say it to Coldplay though.)
5. There is a great need for sarcasm font. (Also a font for "you're a moron but I work with you so I don't want to be too mean")
6. Sometimes, I'll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and suddenly realize I had no idea what was going on when I first saw it. (well, no, because my movie-watching was severely limited by the PBS-loving parents...but this totally happens when I reread books)
7. I think everyone has a movie that they love so much, it actuallybecomes stressful to watch it with other people. I'll end up wasting 90 minutes shiftily glancing around to confirm that everyone'slaughing at the right parts, then making sure I laugh just a littlebit harder (and a millisecond earlier) to prove that I'm still theonly one who really, really gets it. (Again, I haven't seen a lot of movies - definitely happens with TV shows though)
8. I would rather try to carry 10 plastic grocery bags in each hand than take 2 trips to bring my groceries in. (only my brother will appreciate this - this is also true when trying to bring all of my grandmother's groceries into her condo. She'll suggest that you take a rolling cart through the handicapped entrance and up into her place but instead I'd rather have my hands fall off as I carrry a year's worth of Parmalat through the front door)
9. I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger. (ALL THE TIME)
10. How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nodand smile because you still didn't hear what they said? (this has been happening a lot lately - I am blaming it on swimming a lot but I'm sure what my excuse for deafness will be when the pool is closed)
11. I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired. (ALWAYS)
12. Bad decisions make good stories. (so one time I was at a wedding and they served boxed wine...)
13. Why is it that during an ice-breaker, when the whole room has to go around and say theirname and where they are from, I get so incredibly nervous? Like I know my name, I know where I'm from, this shouldn't be a problem... (I have this problem a lot...this is ridiculous because I love public speaking but this paralyzes me)
14. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at workwhen you've made up your mind that you just aren't doing anything productive for the rest of the day. (I miss these days so much - unfortunately my current job doesn't allow for F'ing around on the internet)
15. I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste. (YES. Also, Mike would count in that statement...I hate when I am all dolled up and I don't see him. I kind of feel bad for him...he only sees the gross JSinP)
16. I like all of the music in my iTunes, except when it's on shuffle,then I like about one in every fifteen songs in my iTunes. (ummm, yes)
17. I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call. (this is a common conversation between me and Mike - should we delete those #s or not?)
18. It really pisses me off when I want to read a story on CNN.com and the link takes me to a video instead of text. (I thought everyone else loved the video!!! I hate it)
19. The other night I ordered takeout, and when I looked in the bag, sawthey had included four sets of plastic silverware. In other words,someone at the restaurant packed my order, took a second to thinkabout it, and then estimated that there must be at least four peopleeating to require such a large amount of food. Too bad I was eating bymyself. There's nothing like being made to feel like a fat ba$tard before dinner. (ALL THE TIME)

Still laughing
I sent Mike an email complaining that I had to pick up TEN books for him at the library this morning.
This is what he emailed me in return:
Ok, that's pretty funny and I'm totally going to do the same thing to someone else.

That's enough, Nickelback.
I got this as an email forward...I was pretty sure it was another cheesy forward but I ended up snorting a few times so I thought it was worthy to share. Also, Mike who usually hates forwards thought it was awesome...so that's a ringing endorsement. :)
I wanted to add my own commentary but it's probably not necessary.
I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing option.
More often than not, when someone is telling me a story all I can
think about is that I can't wait for them to finish so that I can tell
my own story that's not only better, but also more directly involves
me.
Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you
realize you're wrong.
I don't understand the purpose of the line, "I don't need to drink to
have fun." Great, no one does. But why start a fire with flint and
sticks when they've invented the lighter?
Have you ever been walking down the street and realized that you're
going in the complete opposite direction of where you are supposed to
be going? But instead of just turning a 180 and walking back in the
direction from which you came, you have to first do something like
check your watch or phone or make a grand arm gesture and mutter to
yourself to ensure that no one in the surrounding area thinks you're
crazy by randomly switching directions on the sidewalk.
That's enough, Nickelback.
I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.
The letters T and G are very close to each other on a keyboard.
This recently became all too apparent to me and consequently I will
never be ending a work email with the phrase "Regards" again.
Do you remember when you were a kid, playing Nintendo and it wouldn't
work? You take the cartridge out, blow in it and that would magically
fix the problem. Every kid in America did that, but how did we all
know how to fix the problem? There was no internet or message boards
or FAQ's. We just figured it out. Today's kids are soft.
There is a great need for sarcasm font.
Sometimes, I'll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and
suddenly realize I had no idea what was going on when I first saw it.
I think everyone has a movie that they love so much, it actually

laughing at the right parts, then making sure I laugh just a little
bit harder (and a millisecond earlier) to prove that I'm still the
only one who really, really gets it.
The other night I hit a new low at an open bar. I had already hopped
on highway blackout when, inevitably I had to find a bathroom.
Eventually I decided it was probably on the other side of the bar so I
tried to walk over there, but ran into a guy coming the other way. We
played that, Both go left, Both go right game to no avail, so I
finally put out my hand to guide myself past and that's is when I realized, yup, that's a
mirror I just tried to walk through. And the guy on the other side is
me. Even cats can recognize their own image.
How the he11 are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?
I would rather try to carry 10 plastic grocery bags in each hand than
take 2 trips to bring my groceries in.
I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear
your computer history if you die.
The only time I look forward to a red light is when I'm trying to finish a text.
A recent study has shown that playing beer pong contributes to the
spread of mono and the flu. Yeah, if you suck at it.
Was learning cursive really necessary?
Lol has gone from meaning, "laugh out loud" to "I have nothing else to say".
I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.
Answering the same letter three times or more in a row on a Scantron
test is absolutely petrifying.
Whenever someone says "I'm not book smart, but I'm street smart", all
I hear is "I'm not real smart, but I'm imaginary smart".
How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod
and smile because you still didn't hear what they said?
I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars teams up
to prevent a di ** from cutting in at the front. Stay strong,
brothers!
Every time I have to spell a word over the phone using 'as in'
examples, I will undoubtedly draw a blank and sound like a complete
idiot. Today I had to spell my boss's last name to an attorney and
said "Yes that's G as in...(10 second lapse)..ummm...Goonies"
What would happen if I hired two private investigators to follow each other?
While driving yesterday I saw a banana peel in the road and
instinctively swerved to avoid it...thanks Mario Kart.
MapQuest really needs to start their directions on #5. Pretty sure I
know how to get out of my neighborhood.
Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.
I find it hard to believe there are actually people who get in the
shower first and THEN turn on the water.
Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty,
and you can wear them forever.
I would like to officially coin the phrase 'catching the swine flu' to
be used as a way to make fun of a friend for hooking up with an
overweight woman. Example: "Dave caught the swine flu last night."
I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired.
Bad decisions make good stories.
If Carmen San Diego and Waldo ever got together, their offspring would
probably just be completely invisible.
Why is it that during an ice-breaker, when the whole room has to go around and say their

You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work
when you've made up your mind that you just aren't doing anything
productive for the rest of the day.
Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after DVDs? I don't
want to have to restart my collection.
There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are
going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far.
I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me
if I want to save any changes to my ten page research paper that I
swear I did not make any changes to.
"Do not machine wash or tumble dry" means I will never wash this ever.
I hate being the one with the remote in a room full of people watching
TV. There's so much pressure. 'I love this show, but will they judge
me if I keep it on? I bet everyone is wishing we weren't watching
this. It's only a matter of time before they all get up and leave the
room. Will we still be friends after this?'
While watching the Olympics, I find myself cheering equally for China
and USA. No, I am not of Chinese descent, but I am fairly certain that
when Chinese athletes don't win, they are executed.
I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? ), but
when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to
voicemail. What'd you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run
away?
I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing
anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste.
I like all of the music in my iTunes, except when it's on shuffle,
then I like about one in every fifteen songs in my iTunes.
Why is a school zone 20 mph? That seems like the optimal cruising
speed for pedophiles...
As a driver I hate pedestrians, and as a pedestrian I hate drivers,
but no matter what the mode of transportation, I always hate cyclists.
Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not
know what time it is.
It should probably be called Unplanned Parenthood.
I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to
answer when they call.
I think that if, years down the road when I'm trying to have a kid, I
find out that I'm sterile, most of my disappointment will stem from
the fact that I was not aware of my condition in college.
Even if I knew your social security number, I wouldn't know what do to with it.
Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car
keys in a pocket, hitting the G-spot, and Pinning the Tail on the
Donkey - but I'd bet my a$$ everyone can find and push the Snooze
button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time
every time...
My 4-year old son asked me in the car the other day "Dad what would
happen if you ran over a ninja?" How the he11 do I respond to that?
It really pisses me off when I want to read a story on CNN.com and the
link takes me to a video instead of text.
I wonder if cops ever get pissed off at the fact that everyone they
drive behind obeys the speed limit.
I think the freezer deserves a light as well.
I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or
Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lites than Kay.

about it, and then estimated that there must be at least four people
eating to require such a large amount of food. Too bad I was eating by
myself. There's nothing like being made to feel like a fat ba$tard
before dinner.

Topsy Turvy
Before I touch on the topsy-turvy, I'd like to give a shout-out to Gange and CCBL for being such loyal commenters. YAY! Also, big props to CCBL for finding out that she's got one of each "flavor" to that belly of hers!
Anyway...topsy-turvy...I think it's pretty cool. As you can see, I have some cherry tomatoes growing now. It definitely took ALL summer but I think it's because of the lack of sun for all of June and most of July. I actually had two planters originally but the second one got even less sun. I'd like to try it again next summer - maybe move it to a sunnier area (my neighbor offered her garden) and start with nursery-grown seedlings (and not started from seeds).
All this from a commercial on NESN!
Photos and commentary on acupuncture coming soon (aka when I upload the photos).
