I picked the ripening tomato. It looked so nice and was starting to get nice and soft. So last night I decided to pick it so that it doesn't split in the extreme heat that we are going to have this week. It smells so nice I can't wait to have it for lunch, tomorrow. Hopefully I can wait until wednesday to eat it.





I did some work in the garden around 8 this morning. the tomato plants have really done some growing this week. They have gotten taller but also toooooo bushy. So they all got hair cuts! After the haircuts and tying up I gave them all a good drink of miracle grow and came in. Everything is doing so well. I love the use of the black plastic. NO WEEDS! I don't have to spend hours weeding to keep on top of it. Only a little bit of wedding required around the watermelons. I am enjoying this garden so much more then in the past.


I am updating this at 8pm...I had to EAT it! It was sooooooooo worth it. I forget how much better my own tomatoes are from anything in a store. I ate it with fresh basil from my plant, salt and pepper.

Lookie there!
Oh my, G'mama--that's a beauty. You must be well chuffed.
You present it so well in that little peck box. Did strawbs come in thet?
Well, if you have strength to wait with that beauty sitting on the window sill...you're a stronger person than I am, Gunga Din.

Sincere Congratulations...and well deserved.

I seem to get only 2 or 3 nice red tomatoes on my 4 plants each year.
Probably because I like fried green tomatoes too much!!!
