Tomatoes

We decided to plant only two tomato plants this year. We had three last year and were a little overwhelmed with tomato based recipes for weeks. My neighbors, while grateful at first, started to avoid my offers and stopped answering their doors when they saw my shadow darkening it.

We have had a nice steady supply for about 4 weeks of two or three ripe tomatoes per week. Not too many to eat and feel like I was making up recipes (tomato ice cream?) to get rid of them. This week I swear I watered on Sunday night took a peek and didn't see any ripe yet but Monday afternoon there were 8, Tuesday 4, Wednesday 4, and Thursday 5. Really?

I have presented our harvest to our neighbors and friends. No one has stopped talking to me ... yet.
