Sorting Vegetables

With a hard freeze in the forecast tonight, I knew this morning was my only chance to harvest all of our remaining vegetables in the beds. So there I was in our garden, picking veggies and freezing my hands off. (Never mind that three hours later it was sunny and 40 degrees.) It was worth it, though. Better than the alternative, considering I brought in bunches of spinach and arugula, summer squash and zucchini, bush beans and loads of tomatoes.

And Isaac helped wash and sort tomatoes. He is especially good at finding the "icky" tomatoes (rotten) and plucking the stems from the tops of tomatoes.
