A Rose is a rose

Our first tomato, and it was good! It is a Rose de Berne slicing tomato. Yes, it cracked, that is one of the hazards of our raised tomato bed. It still tasted grrreat.

In a blind taste test, Dan awarded it first place over a lovely organically grown tomato from Goransons --and Dan doesn't really even like raw tomatoes (a texture thing). We ate it with some chicken and black bean tortilla soup, mmmm.

Which chicken?

If it were one of ours, it would be Poppy. Or maybe Iris, she's a troublemaker. But no, we need our chickens for their fabulous eggs! Quiche is on the menu soon....
