I know it's been a little bit of time but we went to the great state of Texas to see if it was a place we could retire to and to visit some of hubby's relatives. Although we thought Texas was great, I think the extended hot weather would bother my mom too much. So the search continues.
What I am so excited about is something very silly to a lot of you. Let me back up a little, my dad was a fantastic gardener, grew lots of veggies, especially tomatoes. That gene did not pass on to me. I have tried and can do ok, but, nothing to write home about. So I tried a new brand, called German Girl (I figured since I was German the plant would feel a sense of family). Two tomatoes so far, over a month later, but they are some great tomatoes! Look at the size of this baby...
I will say that the tomatoes sat and sat and once I left the state and my son took over they turned red! I still maintain that I did most of the work and that it was just dumb luck that they "happen" to ripen when I was not home.
My next post will be to share my Terrier Town progress.... I am keeping up so far!
Until then make sure you do something you love!
Susan
