Tomatoes on The Vine

On June 17, 2009, In Food, Home, Nature, Projects, By LisaT

Two weekends ago, Betsy and I went on a monster shopping trip to Marshalls, Target, Lowes and Jons that ended with me lugging home a large pot, a bag of potting soil, a tomato plant and two herbs.

This was done in the hopes of turning my brown thumb green. I figured that since the bamboo shoot I’d received as a wedding favor was still alive, I had a good shot at not immediately killing these new green pets.

So far, there’s one sizable tomato swelling on the vine, with two smaller ones following close behind. And then there’s also the chocolate mint and lemon balm, which seems to be doing just as well. Hopefully it won’t be too long before I’m posting about the delicious tomato I’ve harvested.
