As I have been on the sidelines for MONTHS reading about everybody elses ripe tomatoes, finally, at last (!) I can also say something about my ripe tomatoes! BOTH of them!
Ok, I have had ripe cherries for a few weeks, but we all know cherries don't count. Any nincompoop can grow a ripe cherry tomato.
I lucked out so far with no late frost, no early frost, no wandering moose and lots of warm days, so it's not entirely the result of my stunning prowess as a gardener. I'm so pleased and happy. A ripe tomato is not to be taken for granted!
So here they are, my Alaskan Fancy, which win the prize here for the earliest ripener of all the early tomatoes I grew this year.
TA-DA!!!
