Sad little garden part II

Last year I picked these tomatoes one afternoon from my little garden:

This year I have had exactly four tomatoes.  All season.  I put the caraway container in the photo so you could get a sense of how large they are… not:

I'm a long time banker having worked in banks since the age of 17. I took a break when I turned 50 and went back to school. I graduated right when the economy took a turn for the worst and after a year of library work found myself unemployed. I was lucky that my previous bank employer wanted me back. So here I am again, a long time banker. Change is hard.

  1. This was not a good year for tomatoes. Too much rain, not enough sun.

    Maybe next year. I bet the 2 you picked tasted great 🙂

  2. Aww….wish you were hear and could take some of my grandpa’s tomatoes! He planted something like 17 plants and is up to his eyes in them!

  3. Our garden really didn’t do much better. Our large tomatoes just didn’t seem to do well. Our cherry tomatoes are doing fine though. Tomatoes are one of my ultimate favorites. A friend that I do agility and obedience trials with has had a ton of home grown tomatoes this year and we’ve packed them along with us to the trials and eaten tomato wraps all season. I’m going to be really bummed at this next trial, because the season is pretty much over.

  4. It must be a bad tomato year, everyone has been saying the same thing and I know I barely got any tomatoes either and what I did get were tiny as well. A friend who grows huge amounts of veggies each year and gives away buckets full of tomato’s hardly had any either. Oh – forgot to mention – when we were in Detroit – we we in Troy too!!! Hubby worked for Management Technologies and it was about a block from the Summerset Collection Mall.
