Tomato Garden
Yesterday I was feeling great, my mind was constantly processing thoughts on new food ideas and such and I felt very creative. Today not so much, I woke up and felt sick. I stayed at home all day and basically just slept and watched crappy movies on TV. My food mojo was dead, I didn't even feel like watching my TIVO'ed food shows.
Over the past few weekends I have been steadily getting my tomato garden ready for planting. Over the past few years I have been planting in some old whiskey barrels but this year I decided to build a raised bed. It is 8 feet by 4 feet and is filled with organic potting soil designed specifically for tomatoes and herbs. Right now there are about 25 or so different varieties of tomatoes,herbs and peppers. Every time I go to the local Wal-Mart/Lowes or garden store I add a plant or two. I may need to build another box.
BTW the 2x4's sticking above the ground around the box are strictly for support/level while the box "settles".

It looks tasty! I need to get a couple of plants in this weekend... now where'd I put my notes on what we grew last year...
