Tommy -toes
I was so excited to see this when I went outside this morning:
Our tomato plants have been producing tomatoes for awhile now, but this is the first red tomato we have had! I am so excited!! For as much weeding as I did as a kid, I am unbelievably fond of gardening. Note, I did not say I was good at it, just fond of it! :) It reminds me of summers spent at my grandparents and canning with my mom and Granny. When it was time to harvest corn, it was a family affair - everyone was involved and had a job to do. Those summer memories are so precious to me - spending all that time with people that I love. It may seem silly but this little red tomato makes me feel a little closer to those I am so far away from.

Our tomatoes are still red amazingly after several very cold nights, but they are, indeed, rotten. At least you get to enjoy your tomatoes all year round, right?
