On holistay

Cherry tomatoes growing

The Daily Show’s Holistay bit is great. I had a brief “heh?” moment when John Hodgman snootily says he’s going to Monaco, not necessarily because it’s a 20-minute, 10-euro train ride from where I live, but because it’s a rather boring place to visit. I worked there over a period of a year; I know all too well! But of course it has its cachet with rich folk. It does feel strange sometimes to think that I can actually call the French Riviera home. Not a bad place to have a “holistay” at all!

My cherry tomato plants are in various stages of blooming, and now little green tomatoes are forming. A big summer batch of strawberries is in the making as well, since all of my plants have an amazing amount of blossoms. Malo still hasn’t used the cat door — he thinks it’s a cat window, since it’s transparent — but he’s been enjoying the terrace anyway. I should have it clean enough for some decent photographs tomorrow.
