tomatoes......

Lee in the garden:) I am appreciating every single tomato that our plants produce. Winter will be here all too soon and a fresh, yummy tomato will be difficult to find! Eating warm tomatoes straight from the garden is such a treat! The tomatoes and basil in my hand are going into a pasta salad for lunch.

This juliet tomato plant is as high as the swing set that it is trellised to. This is the most prolific variety I have ever had. Sungold comes in a close second!

A little picnic that we enjoyed at a playground by the library. Annie is volunteering in the morning and then has an hour off before she takes part in a program for older kids. More homegrown tomatoes in the form of salsa, cheese and crackers and oranges.....a perfect, light summery lunch.
