First Blush


Aha! My late bloomers have brought forth their first red tomato. And I am so pleased with myself (as if I've accomplished a feat more heroic than merely water and fertilize them); and I am so proud of them -- my little Manny, Mo and Jack. Ah!

Rick likes to tease me by wondering aloud if the tomatoes will ripen sometime before the first frost comes and steals them from us. (I am less amused by this thought than he is.) But I guess our answer -- or rather, the boys' answer -- is, unequivocally, yes.

Hooray!
