I just couldn't help myself, I had to do it.

@MarieCoyle Nature is unique that way isn't it. And, those look yellow.

The two tomatoes joined together are not even 2 inches tall, so very, very tiny. Sometimes, nature provides us with vegetables in odd shapes and sizes, always interesting. Last week, I had the 5 pound tomato (which we ate!) and this week, this little critter can't even weigh an ounce.

@kaylachan Yes, they are a yellow tomato. Very mild and sweet, and very small!

The son laughed, so my efforts worked on someone. He knows I have a wacky sense of humor!

@MarieCoyle Is he feeling any better?

@thislittlepennyearns Today is definitely a better day for him. He finally slept last night, and that helps a LOT. Thank you for asking about him, I appreciate it so much.

@MarieCoyle See what happens when he knows he's cute? He feels entitled.

@snowy22315 Typical guy, too cute to do the dishes!!

He is sitting up on the kitchen counter, for tonight. The son said, maybe the snowman tomato will do the dishes...but the lazy fellow never made any effort, so I had to do them. Ugh.

@MarieCoyle How can a mother laugh and smile when she is having a son ill like this? I'm really sorry to say this. It doesn't at all look good when I said that. It's good that your son found some solace in this. In such conditions it's really not easy to laugh or smile. Should I say one thing? I think your negative mentality makes you see all the bad and hatred everywhere. That's not the case Marie. You are more elderly and more matured than me. You have seen the world, the ups and downs more than me. Don't get so negative in life. What's the world after all? You see it the way you yourself are. The world is a beautiful place to be. Smile! And be happy! I'll assume me small effort will pay off one day

@MarieCoyle I was only trying to be helpful to you and trying to cheer you up. I thought you spoke the way that I should give a couple of words of encouragement to you. But I am very happy for you that you said that you are always a positive person which is nice to hear! And I'm definitely not going to criticize anyone for anything.

I will admit to sometimes being unconventional in an attempt to find some smiles and humor. My son, who has been ill for a long time, thought it was hilarious so my plan to make him smile worked well. None of us laugh enough anymore. There is a lot of dissension and hate everywhere, and it’s making the world a rather sad place. So I look for smiles and laughter to light up the day.

@MarieCoyle It is hilarious and it looks exactly like a yellow snowman.

@LadyDuck

Thanks, Anna. He thought it was hilarious!

@MarieCoyle poor tomato snowman!

@nela13 We will move on to hunt for something else to giggle over...it's what we do!

It’s going to be difficult but we will make the sacrifice and eat him. .we will depersonalize him first and remove his snowman look!

They are SO good. Sweet and mild.

Sometimes, nature makes some oddities in her vegetable creations. We've had some strange ones over the years. I recall two carrots, they grew together in twists and turns, and looked like a true alien creature! It was so funny and unique, we enjoyed it.

@MarieCoyle This is the first time for me. Glad I got to see them

@allknowing I honestly didn’t realize that they were an oddity, many people in the Midwest grow a lot of different types of tomatoes.

Tomatoes come in many shades. Yellow tomatoes are very common in my area.

Just tiny yellow tomatoes!

@MarieCoyle

I think so, too! Thanks, Fleur.

When was the last time you heard anyone have a good belly laugh, the kind where the person laughs so much he/she can’t stop?? I can’t even remember when anyone around here laughed like that, it’s been way too long. Laughter is good for the soul.

We are, you are correct!

@MarieCoyle Yes, both silly and funny too. That's the charm of being at mylot.

@aninditasen I am always looking for new reasons to smile!

It brought on some good giggles, we get silly here sometimes. Thank you.

It makes the day better when we can laugh and/or smile, doesn't it?

That's true, you're right! Thank you.

We get a bit crazy around here sometimes, Julia! Thanks.

I look for reasons to smile.

Haha I scribbled on it trying to make it into a snowman!

We all need to look for reasons to laugh!!
