The Tastiest Part of Summer


Camden and I inspected the garden this afternoon.  And we came in with - drumroll please - our FIRST TOMATO!  We were pretty excited.  It was all I could do to catch a picture of it before Cam took a big bite.  Mmmm, yummy!  At least that's what he told me, since he didn't choose to share. I guess I'll be waiting for the next one.  I may not tell him when that one ripens!  Luckily, we're looking forward to many, many tomatoes this summer.  Currently, we have 46 more ripening on the vines!

P.S. We also brought in our second harvest of zucchinis and cucumbers (they're growing like weeds - hooray!).  But, come on, it's really not official until the tomatoes turn red!

My maters are getting a lighter green - hopefully a good sign. That tomato is so perfect I'm a little suspicious - are you sure it was real? I guess so, if Cam ate it. I'm salivating!

Uh.....that is a HUGE tomato! Seriously amazing! Are they beefsteak? You'll have to share the recipes/ways you use the tomatoes!
