Tomato Season

Last year, most of our tomatoes were stolen. By humans. This year, either the people moved on, or the raised fence and locked door to the garden is working, because we are in the tomatoes! I planted so many plants, in the hope that it would just be too many for the thief to get around to, that he would leave us a few to enjoy. And now, we are swimming in them.

We've gotten too much rain for tomatoes this year and the last time I was in the garden, they were bursting, which is sad to see. However, We have more than we know what to do with at the moment, so we'll take what we can get and leave the rest for next year's seeds.


I know I've said this many times on the blog, but it is so rewarding to see something that you planted in the house, from seeds, while snow was still on the ground, turn into something edible, beautiful, delicious.
