I’ve been mourning the impending cold-weather death of my beloved tomato plants but reports of their death have been greatly exaggerated. They made it through the first round of near-freezing weather a bit tattered but still standing.
I just enjoyed a few freshly-picked tomatoes for lunch. And I’m wearing shorts in the office today, too. Did someone say it is November?
I’m still getting tomatoes; but, they aren’t ripening quickly. I’ve been making fried green tomatoes with some of the late bloomers.
