just call me Farmer Weldon

Current mood: accomplished

Well folks, just call me Farmer Weldon!

That's right! My tomato plants (2 of them to be exact) that I am growing on my back porch in a large planter have sprouted tomatoes. In fact, they have sprouted so many tomatoes and are getting so heavy with the fruits that I had to stop by Ace today and pick up one of those metal plant holder thingies (yeah, I know all the technical terms) so that they would not lay over and kill my parsley, cilantro and chives!

I have 6 green ones, and today I picked my first red tomato... sliced it and served it with my dinner tonight. Fab! Not at all cardboard!

Now I'm fighting with myself not to pick the green ones. Everytime I look at them, my mouth waters for fried green tomatoes.

Check out my prize! And then send me a blue ribbon!
