I Say To-maa-to

It wasn't for lack of trying.

  Even after the great deer debacle, the tomato plant tried to grow tomatoes.  Sadly, the frost and freeze was early this year.

But once the leaves were frosted, I discovered a little secret about the tomato plant.

Tucked deep inside the tomato plant was one lone tomato that the deer had missed.

One almost ripe tomato just for me.  I picked it and put it on the kitchen windowsill.

Because a tomato ripening on the kitchen windowsill makes me feel like a real gardener.
On the lunch menu this week:  Tomato sandwich.
