Those tomatoes look soooo delicious.

Oh, they were. And the smells were amazing! Thank you for the V-gift, by the way. It's adorable.

Pandas are cute♄ Gah, I'm salivating right now. I really love tomatoes. XD

Nice! Wish we could do garden/organic right now. With my husband's immune system, we've been told not to for the forseeable future....

I know how hard you worked, still I envy you. My friend has a giant vegetable garden. There are too many animals where I live, we lose all our tomatoes and so many flowers. You have me thinking now that I should call her and find out when I'm to go over to work. One year we had so many tomatoes we also roasted a lot in merlot and basil and made the most marvelous sauce.

WOW! You've certainly been a busy bee! Everything looks delicious!

Yes, most of them are heirloom plants. I couldn't tell you which ones other than Brandywine, Costoluto Genovese (or something like that), and Speckled Roman (which are actually striped, I don't get it). I have six different types only one of which was not heirloom.

Oh, and happy birthday by the way. I see I missed it while I was busy canning.

Hehe, I'm moving to a house with a backyard in desperate need of landscaping and I was considering turning a large part of it into a food garden. I see a lot of your last weekend in my future.
