Although my throat feels like razor blades and sandpaper I couldn't put off transplanting the "Mortgage Lifter" tomato plants any longer. They were named back in the depression-30s- when an out of work gardener developed them to be the largest tomatoes ever seen. It is said that he kept his house because those big tomatoes sold so well.They are Heirloom tomatoes . Grace and I went to a Tomato Festival last fall where I bought just one. The seeds of that one tomato produced twenty plants.
I talked to my"peps" across the street -they went to the store and got chicken soup fixins. It will be great to feel it sliding down my throat. WOW! Thanks! It is almost seventy degrees out so I am sure they were not thinking of soup for supper.
I remember walking home from my high school in late May when the trees and the lilacs looked like they look right now. Everything jumped the gun this year. Next year it could be Indiana snowing in this time slot. We never know.
