Morning Farm Report

The garden is up, all but a few species. I enjoy taking Mom out and showing her the growth. She can hardly contain her enthusiasm (well, not really.) Cilantro, basil, onions, cucumber, tomato, zucchini. No bellpeppers, cabbage, green onions, or carrots showing yet.

Almost every day (sometimes twice) I check the family blogs. For a geographically diverse group blogs are a great way to stay in touch with events, stories, and pictures. Thanks for taking the time to keep us up to date. It is appreciated.

It's good that you're growing your own tomatoes! Home grown tomatoes tast so much better anyway!

I concur Jen: I'm convinced most kids have never had a good tomato.... ripe from the vine, eaten like an apple with a sprinkling of salt.

tomatoes grown here in romania are amazing...and i don't really like tomatoes. but these are good. i'll eat a whole one at dinner, although it is cut up and mixed with other stuff. or i'll slice them onto my bread in the morning for breakfast.

Sounds like GG. She would do slice one up on bread.
