Tomatozilla



I landed this big bad boy last week. It was a fight to the finish as I struggled to maneuver this warm juicy specimen through the small opening in the tomato cage. Sam and I took it along to the lake this past weekend but I didn’t have the heart to eat it until I’d shown it to Mom.

When we were all back home on Sunday night, I showed it to Mom. Even in its “must-go” condition, Tomatozilla wowed her. “It must weigh a pound,” she said.

“Oh, it has to be more than that,” I replied, “I’m thinking closer to two.” I took one more quick photo and then added it to my kettle of soup.

One of these days, I need to go back to garden and see if Tomatozilla has any competition lurking in the bush.
