I just went outside to water my tomatoes and snow peas. I had neglected them for the past couple of days, having gotten used to the rain.
There, smiling at me, were five plump Roma tomatoes!
I will leave them on the vine and see if they turn red.
I am about to head out and get groceries. How is your Monday shaping up?

Well, congrats to you, Enjoy them, Mine are diced and sitting in a can, Today was my blogging Monday so that took up my afternoon, I looked out the window and I think this might be the start of a song. The sun is going down, soon the night will be riding in, and I am feeling kinda down. Watcha think?

Glad that you got new tomatoes.
Here we have some new issues cropping up at personal front.
And the trickiest part is to deal with lying and clever folks.

Then another earthquake hits and turns the tomatoes into tomato juice.
I just had lunch and I’m about to go for a walk.

The sight of even one tomato on the vine is heart-warming, isn't it? I remember how I used to feel back in my gardening days, when I had a bit of land and I used to sow all kinds of seeds on it. Kinda miss those days, but who knows? Those days may return. I may yet have my farm and I may start growing all kinds of plants on it. Its good to dream!

I hope your Romas turn red. Do you know how to make fried green tomatoes just incase?

My Monday was ok. It rained most of the morning. I worked on my best friend's diamond painting. I also got a package that I worked from Walmart.com. It was two litter scoops. They are metal ones. Ours were plastic and one looked like it had broken some and they were old.

Yay for the tomatoes! Yesterday was not a good day. I was really low which hasn't happened in many, many years. I'm better today. Have a good day.

The wind chill here right now is +2 degrees. It seems strange that anyone can be growing tomatoes in December outdoors. Enjoy one for me!
