I wish I lived somewhere where we would have to grow a lot of our own food. I would love to grow corn and green beans and sweet peas and the like. The only thing we basically have in our garden is tomatos. But my what a crop of them we are getting this year. As you can see from the pictures, these babies are the size of softballs in many cases. We have a lot of little ones too and I'm not sure why some grow bigger. But these have been great....vine ripened and so much flavor. I could eat a ton of them.
I haven't converted Angie, Jeff or Megan yet, but that is okay as Mom and I will eat all that we can grow. Hope you all are having success as well. I know Mark is and Tyler is trying. But in the spirit of the Foster competitive nature....ain't no one got any ta maters like these!!
Just a sampling.

I'll buy softball-sized, but that last one is a pretty wimpy volleyball.
Our tomatoes are just ripening and we have a ton!
We tried to grow some cherry tomatoes and those are finally ripening as well, but the output has been a little underwhelming.
For two plants we got 6 miniature, bite-sized tomatoes.
The tomatoes are the only thing that turned out from our pathetic garden. The slugs got everything else!
I love tomatoes. Wish I could get my hands on one of those
Send some of those puppies our way:)
Our tomatoes were late ripening, but they're coming like wildfire now . . . can't say they're as big as yours, however.
Grant asked me the other day why I call them "termaties." "Grant," I explained patiently, "Somethings just can't be explained . . ."
Those look delicious Mickey! I LOVE tomatoes. I can eat them plain!
