Now I feel stooopid
Remember those tomatoes photos from yesterday? Well, I also sent them to my parents in Germany, because they are known to grow massive amounts of the red fruit in their yard. What I mean by massive? Think of it that way: there are some neighbors who deliberately schedule their vacations at the same time as tomato harvesting season begins, because they are sick and tired of receiving close to a pound of free, fresh tomatoes on a daily basis ![]()
I can almost picture my dad’s grinning face as he took some photos today and attached them to an email message:

Holy Tomato!
I can understand your parents neighbours.
I used to grow tomatoes in LA , but this is something else again. Are you glad they can’t ship fruit overseas?
