Christmas

[NOIRTRASH]

When it comes to Christmas I don't play the WTF game with gifts. You get money...period. My wife gets more money than the rest, and she doesn't pout and sulk about it. I feel no guilt at all for my insensitivity.

My daughters get baskets of tomatoes, too. Theyre green but beyond 90 days in the soil, so they will turn red soon. Tomatoes are expensive these days.

If you didn't know I am the Master Gardener of the Galaxy. I give God pointers. But I'm blind and limited to what I can grow. Tomatoes and huge sweet onions.

I would not be unhappy if someone gave me a gift of home-grown tomatoes.

Happy whatever you celebrate, James.

Merry Christmas to you too, and anyone who's into it for what it is.

We do turkey and ham at Thanksgiving. Christmas fare is always different. For 2015 we went to a local Italian restaurant we patronized since 1982. This year we're grilling steaks, with asparagus and baked potato. Almost all t he better restaurants closed during the 2008-2016 depression. Even the chains.

My tomatoes are usually dead by Christmas as Florida gets Arctic temps occasionally, and freezes most years. Christmas is usually cold. But its Springlike this year with bright Sun and a high of 80. So there are 24 tomatoes yet to be harvested. Almost time to plant the Vidalia Onions (jumbo sweet).

The last of my gift cards arrived earlier, so I bought 4 more books. Three are noir-crime, and one is a 1000 page bio of Calvin Coolidge. Coolidge suffers lots of ridicule but he served thru the Roaring 20s when America made giant strides in autos, airplanes, appliances, and general prosperity. He hayed taxes, regulations, and bureaucrats. Forgotten is how he killed the Ku Klux Klan all by himself. The Klan was millions when he took office, and nuthin much when Hoover took over.
