The First Harvest


Okay…drum roll. Ceremoniously, we clipped the first tomato and bowed to our royal queen, the tallest of the two “girls.” The little yellow orb was like a piece of organic gold…only edible.

We took tomato #1 to the kitchen, rinsed and dried it. We placed it in the center of our small bamboo cutting board and measured it—pretty tiny at about 7/8th of an inch in diameter, but so beautiful.

We haven’t brought ourselves to cut it open yet, though. Maybe tonight.
