Wow. Lame title. And possibly more than a little confusing.
Let me 'splain. No. Is too much. Let me sum up. {I'll give you a free subscription to the blog if you can name that movie!}
My tomatoes are pitiful. I am only slightly buoyed by the fact that nearly everyone else in the valley has lame tomato plants this year too. Not that the plants are lame - no sir - they are over 6' tall! It's the production that is pathetic. My early girl has one orange tomato and 3 green ones.
Not all is lost, however. While searching for a screw that leapt from his hands, my husband spotted a treasure under the coop. An EGG! Our girls are only 4.5 months, so I wasn't expecting anything yet.
But there she sat. Green and slender and beautiful.
As I walked around the coop, analyzing the best way to retrieve the egg, I spotted another nest of 3 eggs. All long and slender, and slightly greener.
Could it be that our 2 Easter Eggers are blessing us with early eggs to help us combat the lack of 'maters?
Sometimes nature is late, sometimes she's early, yet she's always right on time.
