Wednesday, June 5th (two days away) is the voter registration deadline for the US Senate election coming up on June 25th, between Republican Gabriel Gomez and Democrat Ed Markey.

If you've already registered to vote in Massachusetts, you don't need to register again... unless you moved since the last time you registered. And I think many people in this community and their friends tend to move often. Have any of your friends moved recently? Ask them if they've updated their voter registration!

You can RSVP to this Facebook event and invite other people in Massachusetts to remind them of voter registration and the date of the election.

I came home from a long weekend at the Cape to find the ten Sungold sprouts I'd coaxed up from seed (via almost too much effort) wilted dead or nearly-dead. While howling the F-word like an angry Gregorian chant I tried my best to save the few that weren't entirely dead, but they are now shriveling before my eyes. I expect them to be dead by morning, and I don't have any more seeds. These were the only kind of tomato I wanted to grow this year and I'm heartbroken. I need to find a local source for sprouts.

Before you say Pemberton's, for the last three years the sprouts labeled "Sungold" that I've bought from them proved absolutely not to be Sungold. The first two years they were some kind of generic not-very-good red cherry tomatoes, and last year they were some shit-stock full sized tomatoes that had blossom end rot right out of the gate. (I know, the bee stings thrice, shame on me.)

I'll buy from a nursery, I'll buy from any home gardener, I'll buy from you if you have them. Specifically seeking Sungold, or barring that possibility, another cherry tomato variety that tastes just like them for container growing.

Sunburned and sulking, I thank you for any leads.
