Tomatoes...

Posted in A Word Fitly Spoken

A world without tomatoes is like a string quartet without violins.

I like that one!  I've eaten soooo many tomatoes this summer, and I'm looking forward to even more

Blessings,

Catherine

Jul. 23, 2007 - tomatoes

Posted by MrsQuilty

a favorite ol' timey song of our family is:
there ain't nothin' in the world that I like better
than bacon, an' lettuce and home-grown tomatoes
up in the 'mornin, out in the garden
pick you a ripe one, don't get a hard one
plant 'em all spring and eat 'em all summer
a winter without 'em is a culinary bummer
forget all about the sweat and the diggin'
every time you go out and pick you a big 'un
home grown tomatoes, home grown tomatoes
what would life be without home grown tomatoes
there's only two things that your money can't buy
and that's true love and home grown tomatoes
there's 2 more verses. Do a google search for home grown tomatoes song
It makes us smile as we love tomatoes, too!

Tomatos have been abundant here this year. I look forward to having them until the first frost in Nov. Never saw so much rain as this year! I am not one to complain after so many drought years!
