Cherry tomatoes are too sweet, you need proper Italian tomatoes.

I’ve seen those, Ben.

I think you need to use particular varieties of small cherry tomatoes, but they look promising.

There is almost something almost derogatory about when they announce the first day of Spring in Boston. It’s still below freezing.

By the way, has anyone seen if those upside down tomato growers work? They turn tomatoes into a hanging plant.

Things like plants tend to grow independent of what we do; the issue is what to keep from growing, or what to cut back or prune.

Bugger.

I’ve missed the window for my tomatoes, haven’t I?

1. / 2./ 3. what 80s, 90s revival? Good music is good music.

4. Spring sprang over a month ago, based on the weather and such

5. Things like plants tend to grow independent of what we do; the issue is what to keep from growing, or what to cut back or prune. That’s also a good summary of what life is like right now for me and the Ms.

Nowhere is indeed a classic, up there with My Bloody Valentine for shoegazing wonderfulness. Then again, if you don’t like Shoegazing, it won’t change your mind. On the subject of the nineties revival: If Oasis seem woeful these days, bear in mind that Gem Archer was in Heavy Stereo and Andy Bell’s post-band were Hurricane #1…yes, there’s a reason barely anyone remembers either of these acts: they were mostly rubbish! Early Britpop was great, these guys and bands like them were the dregs.
