When I worked at UPS for some reason there were tomatoes growing between the diesel pumps, which one of the yard drivers would pick and eat. They were apparently pretty flavorful.

back in AR i grew cherry tomatoes and basil in my garden, and on a lazy afternoon i would grab a salt shaker, go out and make little one-bite salads. I'm sorry you don't have the joy of fresh garden stuff. backyard cherry tomates are like the loving tastiest thing on the planet and then when you wrap them up in a fresh picked basil leaf and do a salt shake? this is proof god loves us and wants us to be happy

yeah i have this situation going on right now, it's very nice. i have mozzarella and olive oil and balsamic for when i'm feeling fancy. right now i have a plant i picked up that was grown from "Todd's Galactic Tomato Mix" or a similar name that's supposed to produce different colored tomatoes. right now it has some oval shaped fruits growing out of it that are two different shades of green.

I want to share with the thread this wonderful tomato plant. The tomatoes are smaller than cherry tomatoes and delicious, you can grow them indoors year round provided you have enough light. Put it in this Ikea pot and it looks really nice by your kitchen window.

If you want to elevate your mood and view of the world, start a vegetable and herb garden.

it doesn't have to be big. it doesn't have to be self-sufficient. but please grow a couple cherry tomato plants and some basil - the latter, in particular, is basically a weed and you cannot kill it without serious intent

i have also planted too many zucchini / squash plants before, and that's a happy problem to have.

i accidentally let a mint plant escape before i knew the nature of mint and within one year, it'd taken over 1/4 of our half acre yard

it wasn't a problem, really, and when i mowed back there? it smelled like wonder
