tomatoes(yum yum), football, more on dumpster diving



TOMATOES (YUM YUM)















these are just a few of our green tomatoes we picked
recently right before the 20 degree weather
we picked all of the green tomatoes and wrapped each with newspaper  and placed them in a
25 lb bag (recycled of course)
we put another batch in another 25 lb bag without
wrapping them
we put some out on our table so they would ripen
faster

these tomatoes above are all heirloom      lost the
names of them so dont know what they are except
one is the black zebra
the green ones are placed in the picture to show what
they looked like when we picked them
some of the tomatoes ripen when they are red like
the usual tomato and some are a darker color and
some are a green red mixture

the flavor is the best
know will be sad when they are all gone
hopefully they will last until january
then will have to buy those nasty tomatoes at the
grocery store

here is a link to an article by the dirt doctor in his
newsletter    it is about different ways to store the
tomatoes when they are picked green

FOOTBALL
well the cowboys lost
the game was close
but will say its michael vicks year
theyll get another chance at the eagles in the next
few weeks

not sure how feel about michael vick
he did serve his time in prison for his crimes
he has done all the right things to rehab himself
should he have gotten a second chance
would it be easier to accept if it was about drugs
instead of about dogs

am from the south and know that dog fighting goes on
and has for a long time

andy reid his eagle coach has forgiven him
andy reids two sons spent time in prison for drugs
and have gone through rehabilitation
and from reports are productive members of society
he has some compassion for people coming out of
prison who have paid their debt to society

hopefully michael vick is rehabillitated and will continue
to do all the right things in the future

he is sure fun to watch

MORE ON DUMPSTER DIVING
sorry can not reveal the name of the relative that did the
dumpster diving
have to protect the innocent
plus if i do im in deep trouble

some one replied that when they lived in another state
they did not have to dumpster dive as it was all thrown
on the side of the street and you could just pick what you
wanted
whats that called ........ditch diving
