Summer's Best

I watched this mushroom grow from a little white blob at the base of the tree to this magnificent mushroom. Guess I should have done a growth progress series. It took two days to become large. Then! I broke it off because I wanted to see the underside. 

This is one of two tomatoes that I just got from my daughter's garden. It's almost a sin to cut into this beauty. The Oxhearts are meaty and non-acidic with few seeds (that I will save for her for next year). SOOOOO GOOOOOOD!!

The marinating salad was made from my brother's tomatoes and cucumber.
