I'm a farmer!

I replaced some of the plant stakes with longer, stronger ones tonight, and then watered the garden.  What I thought at first was a curled up leaf is actually about a 1" baby Roma tomato.  Not ready to eat yet, so poor Shirley will have to wait a bit longer.  I should have plenty more soon!  And some cucumbers to go with it.

Isn't baby 'Mater cute!  About 2 finger widths long.  Romas only get to be about 3 ounces, so it won't take long to mature.  The big 13 to 18 ounce ones haven't set fruit yet.  But soon, in all this heat and humidity!  And the cucumbers won't be far behind.  Lots and lots of cucumber.  Have to find some recipes
