Most of the figs aren’t ready yet, but a few ripened early, and Monica made this wonderful appetizer. It was DELICIOUS! The figs are stuffed with goat cheese, thyme, rosemary, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, soy sauce, salt and pepper. Thanks Monica! 
While deliciousness is good for food, it’s not good for people. I’m old and tough and hardly ever bothered by bugs, but my kids are young and tasty, and they get eaten up by the mosquitoes.
Those damn mosquitoes love Leandra.
Last year one of the emails from Garden Writers Association was about a new mosquito repellent lantern. I may be a bit bold about asking for things, but it usually works for me, and a week later my free lantern arrived.
Speaking of getting free shit, did you see the July/August edition of Alabama Gardener Magazine and that article about interesting tools? I could have had that assignment, but I was too busy to write it. Can you imagine how many cool tools I could have gotten for free? What was I thinking?
Anyway, back to the lantern. I’ve been meaning to tell you about this thing for awhile. It really works, but let me warn you; read the instructions. Don’t just turn the light on and think it’s working. That’s just a light. Read the instructions.

The sun has just begun to rise lowest prices viagra over the perplexities that life has bestowed upon us.
One of the reasons I’m posting about this now is that a couple of weeks ago someone – probably me – left it running on the front porch all night, and we ran out of fuel. Monica ordered refills from the website, but while waiting the kids were being devoured every time they ventured outside, so they resorted to smearing chemicals all over their bodies. I could hardly stand the stench. And after using that nasty-ass spray for the third day, Leandra started complaining about a bad headache. I told her to quit using the damn stuff and stay inside until our lantern refills arrived.
The story has a happy ending because now Leandra has the experience to state that the Thermacell Lantern works better than the noxious repellents she smeared on her skin, and I bought her another repellent to take when she goes to Monica’s.
FYI I’m not just sucking up to Thermacell so I can get more free shit. Every word is true, and I paid full price for my refills and this other thing. But if you guys at Thermacell ever launch any new products and need someone to test them, I’m your girl.
While linking to the Thermacell website, I noticed this personal cooling system. It sure does get hot here in Alabama. ;~)
