Surprise
This year I left all my tomato plants in flowerpots and honestly I didn’t even look after them very often. The pickings however were quite considerable and to our great pleasure we could harvest them before our summer holiday. The pots went straightaway to the back of our garden and the plants into the composter. Seems that we forgot one of them because this afternoon a bright red spot flashed up right beside the compost pile. A closer look revealed one last baby-sized tomato that had survived the heavy rains and the marshy environment in its pot. A quick shot and off it goes in my mouth – one last summer breeze as a start for autumn.
