What happens when you don't plan ahead.

Couple weeks ago your Mom & I were impressed with some VERY large tomato plants displayed and for sale at Costco.



ALWAYS wanting to be the First kid on the block to have fresh, red tomatos, I suggested we buy some for our garden. "Better yet," I said, "let's buy Two so we'll have TWICE as many, soooo much sooner than anyone else."



Now you might be wondering how this has anything to do with the title?



Today while at the local garden & supply store, your Mom mentioned we had two pots of Sweet 100's at home, and should they stay in the large pots, or should they be transplanted to the Garden?



"Oh, those Sweet 100's will do fine in pots" she replied, "as long as they're staked up well enough, you'll have cherry tomatos all summer."



Uh Oh...........................look out!!




I don't LIKE Cherry Tomatos.

YES, I READ THE TAG!!

WHAT KIND OF NINCOMPOOP DO YOU THINK I AM?

The tag said, "sweet 100"

How were WE supposed to know what that meant?

Do YOU know ALL the different tomato varieties?

Well so much for wanting to be the hare in the race for the firts tomatoes! We learned our lesson and will soon love home grown chery tomatoes. "They tatste soooo much better than store bought. You'll think the were the size of beefstakes!"

Beefsteaks?

I like cherry tomatoes okay. Or we could use them for salsa appetizers.
