Harrison loves to pick vegetables from our little garden. Harrison helped his daddy plant the vegetables and water them (his favorite thing to do of course) all summer long. It has been a wonderful learning experience for him to watch his garden grow. The garden was Robert's idea. I have to admit, I didn't think anything would grow when he came home with those puny little plants. Okay, okay...So they grew and grew and produced like crazy. We have had tons of fresh tomatoes, grape tomatoes, pear tomatoes and cucumbers from each plant. Our backyard gets so much sun, it really is silly that we haven't taken advantage of it in years past.
This is in the spingtime. I think this tomato plant should go right here.
A little bubbles will help. Right daddy?
He was so proud of his plants.
This is a picture of just one pickin'. I would like to share with you one of the recipes for a tomato salad that is quick and yummy.
