So last night I could no longer put off harvesting two of my tomatoes as they were a beautiful, bright red which meant they were calling to me "PICK ME NOW! TURN ME INTO GUACAMOLE WITH A NICE AVOCADO!"
They are loud tomatoes. It's the red.
So I picked two of them and a large cucumber. I was hoping to extend my cucumber picking a little longer but this one was good sized and it looked like my cucumber plant was struggling to grow others while providing for this monster.
That is TOTALLY not an upside down happy face that I can't figure out how to fix.
Okay maybe it is. I put the quarter there in the middle for the "nose" to give you an idea of size. I think I did pretty good overall.
Something about sun ripened, on the vine tomatoes smells so earthy and wonderful.
And now I need an avocado.
PS - those are Roma tomatoes which are better for making sauces. In case you thought they looked weird because they aren't so roundish.
