TOMATOED

I happened to look in between my tomato cages yesterday and I found this one stem with 6, count'em, 6 ripening tomatoes. These are the Brandy Boy hybrid (a cross between the heirloom Brandywine and Burpee Big Boy tomatoes. So they are as yummy as Brandywine and far more prolific like the Big Boy. You get the best of both! So it's tomato glut season here in the Rogue Valley...not quite frost time but getting close, so we are picking most all the red ones we find. Still lots of green and pinkish ones remaining. We keep the tarps close at hand for threatened nighttime frosts. So far, so good!
