'maters

John has been working diligently this summer on his tomato garden, and we are now starting to reap the rewards! We have bunches of cherry tomatoes, which are one of nature's perfect snacks, and we will soon have some full sized ones as well. (The first batch of full sized ones probably won't be on the vine long enough to ripen, as I'm craving some good fried green tomatoes!)

Many folks on the island have gardens and grow a wide variety of veggies and fruits. Ours is very small (and not very varied) by comparison, but here are a few pictures anyway.


Cherry tomatoes bustin' out all over.


Very small, very green, but soon to bigger, and soon after that to be sliced and fried!


The crop on our kitchen counter.

Those pictures made me hungry. I think I'll go eat a few cherry tomatoes now!
