refresHco: m's bruscHetta salad

summer's ['better-than-viagra'] rare jewels.

winter: i'm not a fan. summer: by far, is my fav.

• the [u.square] farmers market is seemingly at its largest, packed, and abundantly color- and fruit-ful.
• daytime is sufficiently long enough to give you reason to be tired at night.
• and all the while you get to bounce in and out of the house without having to worry much, or at all, about clothing: covering up parts that won't get you arrested [for indecent exposure] is concern enough-- no hats, missing gloves, scarves, boots, leggings, sweaters, turtlenecks [if that's your fashion..], parkas.. layers upon layers of heavy. dead. weight.
• my other favorite of summer is/are: fresh figs. they're one of the most delicate fruits i know and are cherished, at least in my book [or on my taste palate], as they are available for only a limited number of weeks out of the entire year.

i mean, look at this...


..and tell me it doesn't just make you salivate just looking at these sticky, tender, ever-so-slightly sweet morsels of nature's goodness.. yum.. a little pricey, but doggone yum.. for a limited only folks.. so go out and get sum, ahem, some... yum, i mean.. [grin].
