A Farmer's (Tall) Tale
Monday, July 28, 2014
This has been a bumper crop year for tomatoes and we almost can't keep up with our 6 plants. I pulled 13 ripe Early Girls off of one plant Sunday night and we've given away I-dont-know-how-many to all the neighbors. Time to make some crushed tomatoes for chili this fall?
J. has been engaged in a rather fun "tomato war" via text messages with his mom. Or it's more a war of who can tell the tallest tale regarding how big their tomatoes are. We've had fun coming up with some whopper stories, so why don't you join in the fun in the comments? You know those "Your momma is so fat that..." jokes? Well, how about this....
My tomato is SO big that....
...it wouldn't fit through the back door!
...I had to rent a Bobcat to move it!
...we fed BLTs to everyone in the tri-state area and STILL had leftovers!
I hope you'll join in the fun and add your own "whopper" tale in the comments.
And speaking of tails....it looks like we're not the only ones that like huge tomatoes.
I've shared this silliness with this week's Down Home Blog Hop and Homestead Barn Hop. They're's lots going on over there - go check 'em out!

I had so many tomatoes in my garden this week it was like jumping into a ball pit at chuck E. cheese!
