In my garden, grow tomatoes, garlic, basil, and cucumbers. Seen in the picture are two pea plants which didn’t survive the heat. (The picture was taken a few months ago—my plants aren’t nearly as green as they were then!)

I have eight tomato plants, all of them producing somewhat small varieties. They have been producing beautifully! In fact, I got more tomatoes today, than I got all last year with four or five plants!

Daniel loves them. He asks for “matoes” every day, and when you give him one, he asks for another. And another…and another! Until you tell him there all gone. He especially love the “baby matoes”—Sweet 100’s. I’m glad, because I have three plants and they produce more than the rest combined!
