Eat Me


I'm trying not to count my tomato sandwiches before they're sliced, but it's sooooooo hard. Look at this beauty. Lovely and organic. This will be the first tomato from my test gardens. It is from the south side of the house and it's the heirloom. I have big plans for it. Now to decide, the tomato salad, broiled tomatoes with parmesan cheese, gazpacho, stuffed tomatoes, spaghetti sauce, BLTs...

PS -- There are about 15 greenies on this one plant. The north side test garden has finally sprung blossoms (it is not heirloom variety). My peppers are puny and my zukes have huge foliage, blossoms, but some kind of problem (I've yet to figure that out).

Isn't it interesting how tomatoes from a store are just so-so, but tomatoes from the garden are Yum!

You'll have to give me tips when I try this out for the first time next year. I bet it will be the best tomato you have ever tasted!
