Judd home grown 'maters, part I

One of my very favorite things to eat is a fresh garden tomato. I have fond memories of just eating tomatoes just like an apple, but with a little bit of salt sprinkled on. When we were living in VA, the tomatoes just seemed too expensive to enjoy them that way and I've always wanted to try to grow my own, but I used to want to "do" a lot of things I never had time for. This year I was bound & determined to try my hand at growing my own tomatoes. Since we were hoping to be able to move out of my parents' home before the end of the season, I opted to grow a tomato plant in a container.... My mom also planted many tomato plants, but put hers in the ground (she's a seasoned gardener). She let Anderson have responsibility of one of the plants and we decided to name our plants:

meet "Mater" - this one is mine...

meet "Dirt" or "Superman" (depends on the day) - this is Anderson's to nurture

Hopefully in several weeks I can post "part II" showing some green tomatoes!!!! I can't wait!!!
