The first of the tomatoes


I was as the Shop-Rite and they were selling fresh Jersey tomatoes for $1.50 a pound. I was tempted then I remembered I had two home-growns on my windowsill. So what the heck, I ate one.
A teeny bit green and tangy but even so, a nice flavor. How many of us have started projects only to have them die (literally) on the vine. Perseverance pays.

Hi Mr Mustache
the seedlings you gave me have finally developed tomatoes. I have 3 little green tomatoes on their way to being lush red edibles. We will have to take a pic wednesday.
See ya then!

The ubiquitouw "we". Perhaps after I play a round at the club I'll take a peak at your plants.
