The next gardener in the family

I was away in Iowa for a little while and Chris was in charge of the watering. He did such a good job that TOMATOES GREW!

Tomato buds?

Will these buds become tomatoes? Or more branches? Pretty weird and fuzzy and alien-looking, huh?

Next summer's $2 project.

Courtney and I hit up the Farmer's market in Brooklyn Heights this weekend and some of the more tempting purchasing options (other than the apple cider donuts and CAKE!) were the rows and rows of baby plants.

That's when I realized that my tomato plants? They could totally be sold next year. $2 a pot, here I come!

Tomato plants, 44 days old.
