Annette,
Thank you so much for making us aware of the Human Rights Watch International Film Festival.

I remember those tomatoes!

They look just as good and ripe as the first time Barista had them on the site, eh walleroo?

Nice tomatoes!!!

Nice tomatoes!!!

Ya gotta love Jersey tomatoes.

That's actually a tomato from Burpee called Long Keeper.

Saturday, June 10 DECISION TIME: From 8:30 a.m. until 11:00 am or noon on Saturday, discussions will be held at Applehouse regarding upcoming breakfast/brunch decisions. Compromise brunch will be served at another location.

(above post was me)

Ah, but you didn't give a location. What if, say, mikey wants to pass on the Human Rights Film Festival to have his Grape Nuts at your place?

Don't forget "HELLO DOLLY" at the Papermill Playhouse in Millburn: it's a hit..

Book Sale, Craft/Flea Market, Saturday 10 - 4, Esplanade in front of Bloomfield Public Library sponsored by Friends of the Library (FOL). Good used books, children's books, audiobooks,lots and lots of videotapes, and FOL tote bags to carry home your treasures. Craft and flea market vendors. Parking behind the library off State St. Come out and support a good cause. All proceeds support the library.

Girls got some arms...look at her biceps!

are you aying that she might actually be a he?

she proably works out

all of the tomato oogling reminds me of that Wonders Years episode where Kevin and his father build the treehouse....

anybody else remember that?
