No Soup For You


There’s a bench on our front porch and sometimes Leah and I sit there....but often our spots are taken.

This week onions and shallots from Leah’s garden are drying on the bench, and since there was no room left where a fella could sit, I got out my camera and photographed the produce glowing in the sweet evening light.

Another day I looked out our front window and saw that our cat Basil had staked out some bench turf. I thought there was photographic potential in the scene, but Basil is getting old and cranky and will actually sometimes bite if you incur his how-dare-you-get-near-me? feline wrath, so I stayed indoors and made my photograph from a safe distance.

So...like I said...sometimes we sit on that bench, but usually we don’t.
