For the Record

I wish to state, for the record, that I have yet to buy a tomato this year. And that we eat a heck of a lot of tomatoes. And that it's mid-winter, way past growing season. And that I cleared the garden of tomato plants a month ago. And that we're still eating the tomatoes that I started growing in September last year on a mere 1x3m plot - though admittedly, I'll have to buy some in a week or two, as there are only 10 or so left, ripening slowly on my kitchen windowsill. And that they were grown completely organically.

Not bad, hey!

Also for the record - home-grown tomatoes taste WAY better than the mealy, watery, pale-pink, tasteless ones you buy for 8 bucks a kilo in the shop. (And home-made strawberry jam beats any expensive bottled stuff hands-down in taste and aroma.)

(Yet another trivial blog-post that you didn't really want to read - but hey, it's my blog! :) )
