Christmas Tomatos

The first course of this evening's dinner with our friends from France and New York. We returned last night from our 8-day tour of Maine and our family house in New Hampshire, and Jane and Marty arrived as a complete surprise for our French friends.

From left: Marylee, Didier, Jane, Nine and Marty. The tomatoes are the last from Marty's garden in upstate New York (the reds are Brandywines, with Green Zebras).

Nine's shawl is here, and a chickadee from our recent visit to Jane and Marty's is here.
