First Tomato of the Season

2007-08-18 Cabana Demo and First Tomato 010, originally uploaded by jessica_beagan.

It was the first of two I enjoyed the other day. It looks so perfect, but unfortunately both were partly rotten inside. So I cut that part out, and the part that remained was delicious.

There are so many more lovely green tomatoes waiting to ripen out there now, and flowers just turning to fruit, and buds just turning to flowers.

I've gotten better about nurturing all of my plants, thanks in part the purchase of a watering can and a pair of pruning shears. The effort is both grounding and rewarding.
