fat and ugly

i want you to know that even though i call this post 'fat and ugly', i am filled with joy and pride. as dwight shrute would say, its the money beet. we got our tomato plants from a good farmer friend of ours. they were young, small and depended on us, just like lets say children?! i was impatiently waiting for the first sign of an actual tomato fruit on our plants... it took what felt like forever. finally finally, this little baby tomato appeared. i watched it grow and to my surprise it just kept growing. it grew to be a very fat and not so attractive tomato, but of all my garden goodness that i have right now, it holds the spot light in my heart.
