Well, just as Shirley MacLaine stated in Steel Magnolias, "I'm a southern woman, we grow tomatoes, its what we do!" I have tried for the last three years to grow tomatoes, no luck, that is until this year. I don't know if it was the torrential rain we have had or the lack of days over 90 degrees, all I know it that I have cherry tomatoes, peppers and basil galore!
So far not an evening has gone by when I haven't used some of these beauties in our dinner! Any while I found out that I am gardener, I found my 14 year old daughter to be quite the photographer!
I am making tons of pesto and freezing it for winter, as well as tomatoes. Still working on what to do with all the peppers, not sure I can freeze them. In the mean time I am loving my small garden, maybe next year watermelon! A gal has to dream!
