Sorry to be late checking in. It’s been a provoking day. Had to have the plumber out to redo work he did on Tuesday.

On the garden front, I harvest 3/4 bushel of red, plump, beautiful tomatoes last night and I still have a lot on the vines. I need to get them in before the frost gets them. It’s been dipping to 34 at night all week.

It’s my birthday today. We have a custome here that on our birthdays we each bring a treat to the cafeteria at work and spread it out on the table for all of the employees to take, as they please. So, today I brought in a humongous box of tomatoes for my co-workers and a supply of brown lunch sacks for them to take home whatever they want. I haven’t been back there yet, but I understand that most of them are gone.

Happy birthday!

my tomotoes for some reason are outstanding this year...I planted a variety of plants and some are producing 1 pound and over tomatoes....I think I'll have pulled in about 300 pounds seriously....but I'm not canning....at least not yet....I'm taking the peels off and freezing them for now.....
