Look Ma, I'm Finally an X-File!!!



Eaten by ailien tomato plants...

Killer Tomatoes

Finally, I have some pictures to put up of my tomatoes! I'm growing two varities, Better Boy Bush and Sweet Tangerine. The Sweet Tangerine, a yellow tomato is the first to ripen this year. They are very tasty.
















We had a tornadoesque storm last Thursday, it knocked some of the tomatoes off the plant before they ripened. I don't know which ones were which, but I cooked them up with olive oil and garlic and they were delicous, they go great with warm feta and italian bread.



Going Bananas


This is the first banana pepper of the season. He's been on the plant for a long time now. I finally cut him off, he's got a nice little bite to him and I guess if you leave the peppers on there long enough they take on a nice orangey red tinge toward the top.

Garden Shots

Here are a few shots of the basil, rosemary and salvia that I'm growing. They are of gigantic proportions. There are also some pics of the fruit that is waiting to ripen. I have one red tomato; it is the first of the season. Yummy!
