Time For Chores! Then The Fun Begins!

We took a gander at the garden and it is coming along just fine.  The last of the tomatoes will be placed in the front yard today and tomorrow.  The upper left hand plants are basil (to draw the bees) and potatoes.

The baby tomatoes await planting

This tomato is tiny now.  It is called “Enchantment”. Description: 70 days. Solanum lycopersicum. (F1) Early maturing plant produces high yields of 3 to 4 oz red plum shaped tomatoes. They are very flavorful. Perfect for salads and for making sauce. Also a good variety for drying and dehydrating. Excellent choice for home gardens. Disease Resistant. Indeterminate

An enchanting Enchanted!

The tomato cages are from Texas and fold up quite nicely.   There are eleven tomatoes in this little area. In a couple of months, they will fill the cages to the top and produce amazing fruit!

The little tomatoes look so small but in 60 days they will be amazing

Today is the 8th and on the 16th we are having our traditional St. Patrick’s Day lunch for Greg, David, and Irene.  These little puppies will be fresh for lunch!

Only a few more days and the cabbage will be on our plates for St Patrick’s Day

After doing some planting, we had lunch and then we when to the shoe repair, the bank, market, and we also wanted to do the cleaners and post office.  We ran out of time!  We had a dinner date?  Well, dinner meeting!  We invited Henry, a member of the wait staff at Old Ranch, Bunnaford and Teri for dinner at Kobe Steakhouse.

Henry could put it away!

We sat there from 5:00 PM until about 8:00 PM feasting on delicious items from the sea. Manny, our sushi chef, was making up some new creations and we enjoyed it a lot.  The bathroom scale, however, will not be a happy camper tomorrow!

We headed home… Stuffed to the gills and did the treadmill and watched some more Columbo, some NCIS, and finally some Cheers.
