We've had a plum tree, dunno what variety, in our front yard for three years. It's a lovely little tree, with purple leaves, and I thought it was purely decorative. The former owners planted it, and I have to admit, we thought we'd lost it last summer with the drought, but it survived and HOW!!!

Look!



Holy Mackinoly!! It's PLUMS!!!

They're close to ripe, maybe another week or so. They're sour and tart, but with an edge of sweetness, so... I'm hoping the taste will improve as they ripen.

I'll post later about the Impertinent Daughter's adventures on the last day of school. Right now I'm mellow, and I'd like the mellow to last!
