Saturday, 24 June 2006 - "Free" tomatoes


Dear God:

Today, I am thankful for "free" tomatoes.

My tomatoes won't cost me $64.00 each (although they could have if I had bought a fancy tomato growing kit advertised in the gardening catalogs).

My tomatoes are growing on the six free plants I picked-up at the garden club picnic last week. With hot and dry days ahead of us, I'm sure we'll be eating fresh, home grown tomatoes in a few weeks.

If this year's crop is successful, I'll plant more berries and vegetables in next year's garden. Just think, fresh strawberries, raspberries, chili peppers (jalapenos and anaheims) and tomatoes (of course).

For this blessing, I am grateful.

Amen.
