Here are the top three reasons why living in New Jersey is great in the summertime.
3. It's just a short drive to get "down the shore." (That would be "to the beach" for those of you who don't live in Jersey or in the metropolitan Philadelphia area.)
2. Jersey tomatoes - just out of the field, red and juicy. And, best of all ...
1. Jersey corn - right off a farmer's wagon by the side of the road.
I know this is a limited supply challenge with limited embellishments. But the 3 little flowers are not really embellishments - they're coverups for the ink smudges I got on the paper.
Thanks for taking a peek.

Oh, you are making me so homesick. What I wouldn't do for a big ole Jersey beefstake tomato right now! I lived my whole life in Jersey (born in Philadelphia though) and last lived in Absecon Shores (right outside of AC). My Dad is coming to visit next month and he always brings me tomatoes, Taylor's pork roll, and a bag of pretzels that he gets on the way to the Philly airport

Sure they're coverups, mary Ann! I think because this is so darn cute, the challenge ladies will let this one slide. better be careful in the future, though! I know the shore from both NJ/NY/Philly. I totally get your card, and I dont want to mess with a girl from Jersey. It's all true!
