Random observation since this is a slow time of year in this group. [View all]




I'm eating a grocery store tomato (apparently a Beefsteak variety) as I type this.
It is so bland it practically has no flavor at all. And it occurs to me that most people
have been eating this kind of crap for so long they wouldn't know what a real home
grown tomato would taste like. People have no idea what they are missing out on.

I have about eight plants growing in the back yard right now. It looks like the first
ones should be ready in about two or three more weeks. I'm in 9b, central Florida.
Big Beef and Better Boy.
