tomato time
So the tomatoes are here! Not just the icky ones that were half rotten. Perfect red (and yellow) tomatoes! I am drowning in tomatoes, even with tossing probably a third of the "too wormy/buggy/ugly/etc" into the compost.
Monday I got an entire 4 pounds of tomatoes! Not even including the cherry tomatoes. Tuesday was at least two pounds I bet.
We've also been eating a *lot* of green beans and peppers! I didn't even want to plant the green beans, and thought many times that for sure they'd be a waste of time and space, what with ground hog and deer issues. Those stunted little plants sure are going crazy out there! I come home with a handful or two each time I am out there!! Yum. Dear green bean, I am sorry for doubting you. Maybe next year you'll even get some compost/fertilizer!
Finally, some creepy bunny on the side of a parking lot at work. I can deal with the missing ears, but the eyes?? yikes!
