A Woman on the Verge

I finally achieved my goal of growing all the ingredients to make gazpacho. The farm produced it all, and it's quite good (I did not include onion, because I can't eat onion, so it's a very individualized recipe).

It seems especially appropriate given that I have been on the verge of a nervous breakdown* these past weeks, what with all the showings and open houses, and getting everything together for Boy-child to go to college. So many documents, signatures, phone calls and other miscellany needed for both. Overwhelming.

No more fresh flowers for a while; the house sold yesterday. Halleluja. The inspection is this afternoon, so keep fingers crossed that they don't require too many fixes.

I may be having a packing party at the end of September. Stay posted.

*I did not put any pharmaceuticals into the gazpacho. If I can't get a decent night's sleep pretty soon though, I may add something into the next batch.
